Abstract

This chapter reviews the usage of graphene nanostructures in the fabrication of electrochemical sensors. In current ages, graphene derivatives have attracted a great deal of attention due to their outstanding electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties, making them one of the most popular choices to develop the electrodes of a sensor. In addition, the high effective surface area, electrocatalytic activity, excellent electrical conductivity, high porosity and adsorption capability, fascinating their electrochemical properties, which turn them as potential candidates for electrochemical applications, particularly sensing. This chapter deals with an overview of the work done on graphene-based nanocomposites in very recent years. It explains the properties of graphene-based nanocomposites for their usage as electrochemical sensors.
