HANDBOOK OF 2D MATERIALS FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE 2 VOL SET (HB 2026)

2D Materials for a Sustainable Future reviews a cutting-edge area of materials science with enormous potential for a wide range of applications. It provides readers with a comprehensive understanding of the recent developments of 2D materials alongside their innovations and applications, with a forward-looking view on sustainable and scalable technologies.

Volume One provides a panoramic view of the vibrant and multidisciplinary field of 2D materials. It includes content on recent advances in graphene, gas sensing, optoelectronic and photonic devices, electrochemical sensors for diagnostics and health monitoring, and energy applications. It also provides a thorough exploration of MXenes.

Volume Two provides a comprehensive exploration of the evolution, properties, and applications of 2D materials. Beginning with the historical and scientific background, it looks at the diverse functionalities of graphene, such as its role in biosensors and energy storage. It expands to other 2D materials like transition metal diselenides for solar cells, MXenes, and fullerene. It address broader energy applications and biomedical uses of 2D materials for neurodegenerative disorders

Features:

• Covers foundational concepts and emerging advancements in 2D materials
• Integrates interdisciplinary applications across energy, environmental science, electronics, and biomedicine, showcasing the broad utility of 2D materials.
• Highlights cutting-edge research on MXenes, graphene quantum dots, and 2D heterostructures, areas not comprehensively covered in existing literature.

Both books are intended for the researchers, graduate students, and professionals in materials science, nanotechnology, chemical engineering, and applied physics. It serves as both a reference for experienced scientists and a foundational guide for those new to the field, fostering new ideas and future breakthroughs in nanoscience and nanotechnology.
