Graphene and its Applications. Study on The Development Trends in Research and on the Implementation Potential using Big Data and Information Refining Methods

This paper presents the results of a study on development trends for graphene technologies and on the applications of this material, which is a dynamically growing field of Nano technological research. The study uses information refinement methods and analytical methods using big data tools, as well as statistical methods and machine learning-based algorithms. The aim of the study was to determine the potential of graphene application and identification of change trends in this field, based on the previously defined fields of technology. The results of the study indicate the potential of analytical tools - the greater the more specific, specialized knowledge in the field is involved. The study identified trends related to graphene applications, mainly in the field related to energy solutions. Research dedicated to applications in electric engineering include not only batteries, but also transistors, magnetic field sensors, fuel cells, electric conductors and generators.
