“…1,2 Substantial efforts have been made to study its electrochemical properties in the last era of scientic research, where global innovations in using graphene as a potential electrode material and its application in sensing and energy related devices have been widely documented. [2][3][4][5][6][7] Since, graphene has already performed very well in various technological and application based elds, like in the fabrication of energy storage devices, 8,9 its use as surface modication material [5][6][7] and its execution as a substrate for sensing and energy production, 10,11 the next stage of graphene research lies in tailoring its exceptional and superior properties, by introducing defects using ion beams, chemical modication, or by means of doping. 3,12 Controlled insertion of defects in graphene can be achieved in order to induce modication in its chemical, physical and mechanical properties.…”
