Abstract
Graphene (GR) resembles as a planar sheet having thickness equivalent to almost one atom of carbon in which carbon atoms are closely packed representing a honeycomb lattice. In the domain of material science and condensed matter, graphene is a fast growing star with good potential for real time application in diverse scientific and technical fields. The documented characteristics and scope of this unique two-dimensional structure opened new possibilities for wide range of devices and systems. Although GR has been established as well-known electronic material, there has been less exploration of the synthesis of single sheet GR. This state of art is an attempt to have overview of recent research in field of GR related to its synthesis and scope in multifarious applications in context to electronics and energy in general and related to field emission and sensors in particular. The scope of graphene nanoparticles in tribology and industrial automation has also been explored. Where applicable, the weaknesses of the existing knowledge base and future directions for study have also been emphasised.
