Possibilities of nanosheet graphenes in synthetic graphite

Abstract

Graphene, the nanosheets isolated since 2004, has increased the scientific and technological curiosity worldwide. Attempts to make large-scale graphene and applications thereof have been having exponential rise during the past 10 years, like Moore’s law of computer memory chips. Synthetic graphite has been known for 120 years, which also had seen strides of improvements in its properties. In this paper, a plausible connection is made to show the possible presence of graphene in the structures of varieties of synthetic graphite.
