This book aims to overview the variety of nanographenes. Their diverse morphologies, mostly stemming from their structural defects, different approaches of synthesis, their singular chiroptical and photophysical properties and potential applications are covered in this book. Includes both top-down approach where nanographenes are obtained from graphite by fragmentation of pristine graphene by chemical methods, leading to non-homogeneous NGs (flakes) without control of their size and shape and bottom down approach is using standard synthetic chemical protocols resulting in homogeneous and well-defined discrete molecules with a full control on their size and shape.

Nazario Martín is full professor of Organic Chemistry at the University Complutense of Madrid and vice-director of the Institute of Madrid for Advanced Studies in Nanoscience (IMDEA-Nanoscience). Professor Martín has authored over 600 scientific publications and has received numerous scientific awards, including the Alexander von Humboldt award in 2012 and the Spanish National Prize in Chemistry in 2020. His research interests span a range of targets with emphasis on the chemistry of carbon nanostructures such as fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, graphene and nanographenes. He is a member of the Academy of Sciences of Spain and the Royal Academy of Doctors of Spain, Member of the Europaea Academy, Fellow of the RSC and member of the ChemPubSoc Europe Fellow (now Chemistry Europe Fellow). He has been the recipient of an Advanced Grant (ERC) and a recent Synergy Grant (ERC) currently under development.
Colin Nuckolls joined the faculty at Columbia University in 2000, was promoted to the rank of Full Professor in 2006, was the Chairman of the Department from 2008-2011. Since 2016 Nuckolls has been the Sheldon and Dorothea Professor of Materials Science. He is the exective editor for ACS Publications journal, NanoLetters. His research, at the intersection of organic chemistry, materials science, and nanoscience, is directed toward the synthesis of new types of electronic materials and uniquely functioning devices, goals he is working to achieve by combining the synthesis of new molecular species, state of the art lithography, unique reaction chemistry, and unusual modes of self-assembly. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
