Abstract

The covalent patterning of graphene, featuring the advantages of physicochemical property modulation, structure tailoring, and performance integration, represents the forefront of graphene chemistry and has evolved into a vibrant branch of the graphene field. Over the past decade, graphene chemical patterning has gained significant progress, resulting in the establishment of various chemical patterning methods, mainly classified as substrate-mediated, tip-induced chemical patterning, lithography-assisted molecular engineering, and direct laser writing. Based on these approaches, a multitude of distinct functional groups are highly ordered grafted onto the graphene surface, displaying a wide array of patterns with varying shapes and sizes. As a result, a wide range of structurally well-defined multifunctional graphene architectures are manufactured, holding great potential for diverse high-tech applications. In this chapter, we provide an overview of the various strategies utilized in the chemical patterning of graphene, with a particular focus on the most recent and noteworthy advancements.
