Sažetak

Graphene has generated great sensation owing to
its fascinating properties with possible potential
applications. This two‐dimensional material exhibits half‐
integer quantum Hall effect and an ambipolar electric field
effect, along with ballistic conduction of charge carriers. In
this article, we provide a overview on some aspects of
graphene devoting the special attention to synthesis,
functionalization, self‐assembly, surface properties, gas
adsorption and fluorescence quenching ability of graphene.
Graphenes with varying number of layers can be
synthesized by using different strategies. Graphene can be
functionalized by different means in order to disperse it in
various solvents. We also present the self‐assembly of
graphene at the liquid‐liquid interface besides its surface
properties including adsorption of hydrogen, carbon dioxide
and methane. The remarkable property of graphene of
quenching fluorescence of aromatic molecules is shown to be
associated with photo‐induced electron transfer
