At time when the limitation of silicon capabilities is being touched the finding of graphene and its exclusive properties of nano-scale are of utmost importance. The possible substitutes of following generation for quicker and minor electronics of present 21st century. Several methods and techniques are being experimented to produce graphene with enhanced properties to be used as a substitute for existing materials. Raman spectrophotometry, X-ray diffraction, field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and tunneling electron microscopy are the characterizing techniques for the prepared graphene. Graphene is the core compound of interest for scientists for this decade and previous as well, because of its exceptional impact on many life disciplines. That is why the increasing trend in recent years for the graphene and graphene oxides is observed.
