Abstract
It could be said that materials science is predicated upon characterization. After all, how can you prove that you have what you say you have? As such, multiple tools have been developed that allow us to visualize materials and measure their properties. As with many nanomaterials, two-dimensional (2D) materials are particularly challenging to characterize given their nature. These difficulties manifest in terms of sensitivity, interpretation, sample preparation, etc. Nevertheless, 2D materials have proven amenable to several techniques that will be discussed in this chapter. In general, we will provide a short summary of the particulars of the characterization tools to be discussed; however, this is not a text on characterization; therefore it is assumed that the reader has a general understanding of the methods to be discussed.
