Additional information

This paper is representative of author's research on graphene nanoflakes and was supported by EC-FP6 grant (DESYGN-IT). It is the first report that identifies the important role of graphene edges on the catalytic performance and highlighted profound parallels between vertically aligned carbon nanotubes and graphene nanoflakes. Subsequent publications by the group demonstrated the use of GNFs as electrodes in fuel cells and DNA biosensors. The work has been featured in most of the major reviews on graphene and many other groups worldwide took up variants of this technology for applications in biosensing and energy storage/conversion sectors (more than 240 citations).
