Biomedical Applications of Nitrogen Doped Graphene: A Review

Abstract

Graphene has been focusing of research due to its extraordinary properties. The discovery of graphene opens up newdimension in the field of materials research and nanotechnology. The various characteristics of graphenehavea wide range of applications. from health to aerospace.  Many methods can be used to synthesize graphene. Graphene and graphene-based materials have applications in different fields due to unusual electrical, mechanical and thermal properties of these materials. Doping of nitrogen is found to enhance various properties of graphene and have wide range of applications. In this review, an overview of the effect of nitrogen doping in graphene is discussed. Synthesis of nitrogen doped graphene, effect of nitrogen doping on the structure of graphene and different applications of nitrogen doped graphene, are briefly explained. Due to biocompatibility, nitrogen doped graphene has wide range of applications in biomedical science.
