Book Part Carbon-Based Nanostructures and Nanomaterials(Elsevier, 2020) Karaca, B.; Karataş, Y.; Cakar, A.B.; Gülcan, M.; Şen, F.Carbon has been used in many different ways throughout history, including human life and technology. Since ancient times, coal, carbon black, and graphite have been used for writing and drawing. Recently, conjugated carbon nanomaterials especially carbon nanotubes and fullerenes have been used as a material to store energy due to its unique properties. In the last 10years, nanostructures and nanomaterials have taken attentions extensively due to having many advantages including excellent mechanical, thermal, chemical, and electrical. Therefore, carbon-based nanostructures and nanomaterials nowadays found the opportunity to be applied in numerous areas such as electronics, sensors, composite materials, drug delivery, energy conversion and storage, and field emission devices. In the 21st century, the capacity of these materials and the impressive aspects as environmentally safe and green fabrication processes and industrial production of carbon-based nanostructures and nanomaterials are extremely necessary, and therefore, it can be defined as the primary research field for technological and scientific applications. This section provides a broad overview of the fundamental properties of carbon-based nanostructures and nanomaterials, simple synthesis methods and a wide range of technological and industrial applications. © 2021 Elsevier Inc.

For a few decades, growing development in chemical synthesis of nanomaterials and material surface modification have been seen and performed in numerous applications including biomedicine, biotechnology, catalysis, magnetic chemistry thermoelectric materials, etc. Various methods for fabrication of MNPs which have a controllable size, distribution, and surface modification have been reported. In these methods, several techniques containing irradiation, microwave, ultrasonication, vapor deposition, electrochemical, and microwave are applied to produce MNPs either in bottom-up or top-down processes. Generally, magnetic synthesis of nanoparticles is carried out by using these two processes. Nanomaterials with magnetic properties have wide applications in many fields such as biology, medicine, and engineering. In this section, the recent developments in the structures, occurrences, most commonly used samples, and common areas of use of the MNPs are given. © 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
