Advances in the synthesis of heteroatom-doped graphene-based materials and their application in sensors, adsorbents and catalysis.

Abstract

In recent years, as a new type of carbon material, graphene has attracted much attention owing to its high conductivity, large specific surface area and excellent chemical stability. After introducing heteroatoms into graphene, the physical, chemical and biological properties of doped graphene are significantly enhanced. This review focuses on synthesis methods for N, B, P and S co-doped graphene and graphene-based composites and comprehensively discusses their recent applications in the fields of sensors, adsorbents and catalysis. The challenges and application prospects of heteroatom doped graphene materials are also proposed. This study provides a reference and guidance for the development and application of new doped graphene materials.
