  • First Online:
Complex Magnetic Nanostructures

Abstract

Since its first isolation in 2004, graphene, a two-dimensional single layer of sp2-hybridized carbon sheet with hexagonal packed lattice structure, has been in the spotlight around the world. The unique and exceptional physicochemical properties, such as high thermal stability, high surface area, excellent recyclability, and, most importantly, on-demand surface engineering with a range of nanoscale structures, of graphene and its subtypes have triggered colossal scientific interest with the aim of transforming the global market for the construction of state-of-the-art composite materials. Among such materials, magnetic graphene nanocomposites, nanomaterials composed of inorganic magnetic constituents in the form of either particles or any varying shape embedded in graphene as hosting matrix, are of particular interest, and the scope of their usefulness has progressively matured in the past few years for contemporary yet wide technological applications, including, but not limited to, heterogeneous catalysis, enzyme mimics and biosensing, and molecular imaging.
