Special Issue Information
Recently, new trends in graphene and graphene oxide nanocomposites research has emerged. Graphene/graphene oxide-silver nanocomposites are one of the most intriguing class of materials that combine the extraordinary characteristics of graphene with the unique properties of silver nanoparticles. The synergetic properties of these composites have potential applications across different fields. This special issue highlights the recent advances in synthesis and applications of these nanocomposites with emphasis on green and benign synthesis routes and functional applications in sensors, catalysis/ photocatalysis, antimicrobial/antifouling agents, and energy storage. We welcome submission of both original research and review articles within the scope of this special issue.
