Carbon-Based Nanocomposites: Processing, Electronic Properties and Applications

The last two decades, in particular, have witnessed a large volume of research revolving around structure-property correlation Carbon based nanocomposites, synthesized by several methods.In the simplest terms, electronic properties these nanomaterials, which form present context discussion, vary mainly as function three parameters, out 2 are process parameters (viz. kind reinforcement and method synthesis) one is structure-dependent parameter highly influenced aforementioned plays vital role determining ionic transport phenomenon materials. To be more specific structure dependent parameter, interaction between electrons equilibrium 0D (point) defects, along with different types interfaces, crucial understanding properties, apart from physical chemical These materials find applications number sectors, such nanoelectronics, supercapacitors, absorbent, photocatalytic, photovoltaic, solar cells, sensors, energy storage due to their exceptional electronic, mechanical properties. chapter will intend focus primarily on providing brief overview state-of-the-art detailed discussions some recent developments conventional Carbon-based nanocomposites (synthesized techniques) property finally, address significant challenges this field.
