Abstract
Graphene is being claimed to be an amazing material which can be made from a layer of carbon one-atom thick. It currently appears to be the strongest material in the world. Yet is completely flexible and more conductive than copper. All of these are just hypothetical at this point, but could be real and all could be incredible. In view of these potentials, research on the potential for application of graphene continues to expand internationally in terms of new products and innovative production techniques. It is clear from the number of publications being generated internationally that the research effort has multiplied manifold over the last 10 years involving more than 20 countries of the world. Internationally published papers indicate that these topics include a growing number of products which are based on integrating graphene across a range of applications. These applications include developments of products including consumer electronic devices, wearables, flexible RF devices, supercapacitors, conductive inks, sensors and coatings. This article gives detailed statistics in terms of R & D publications internationally over the past 10 years and demonstrates the rate of growth of interest on various aspects of Graphene and its practical applications.
