Graphene has been attracting tremendous attention owing to its fascinating physical properties including quantum electronic transport phenomena, ultrahigh mobility, superb elasticity, thermal conductivity and mechanical strength. There have been many efforts to utilize these outstanding properties of graphene for macroscopic applications such as transparent conducting films particularly useful for display and energy applications. In addition, graphene provides a very useful platform for advanced chemical analysis including Raman spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy and mass-spectrometry. The graphene can be also utilized as an atomically thin membrane for transmission electron microscopy owing to its ultrathin, ultrastrong, transparent, and conducting natures. In this talk, the recent advances in large-area graphene synthesis and its applications to various chemical analyses will be reviewed.
