This book, Fundamentals and Applications of 2D Materials: From Physics and Chemistry to Devices and Industrial Technologies provides a comprehensive and authoritative treatment of the rapidly evolving field of two-dimensional (2D) materials, bridging fundamental science with emerging technological applications. Since the discovery of graphene, 2D materials have attracted intense research interest owing to their exceptional electrical, mechanical, optical, and chemical properties, which differ fundamentally from those of bulk materials. This edited volume brings together contributions from leading experts to present a coherent and up-to-date overview of this dynamic research area.It opens with an introduction to the fundamental physics and chemistry governing 2D materials, followed by detailed discussions of synthesis routes and advanced characterisation techniques. Subsequent chapters systematically examine structure-property relationships across major classes of 2D materials, including graphene, transition-metal dichalcogenides, MXenes, and other emerging layered systems. Application-focused sections explore the use of 2D materials in electronics, energy storage and conversion, environmental remediation, biomedical technologies, and industrial-scale implementation. The final chapter critically examines current challenges related to scalability, stability, and integration, while outlining future research directions and opportunities.Designed as both a reference work and a guide to innovation, this book will be of value to graduate students, academic researchers, and industry professionals working in materials science, physics, chemistry, and engineering.
