    Fabrication of Graphene from Camphor: Emerging Energy Applications provides a short review of recent discoveries in the field of graphene. Its specific focus is on the synthesis of graphene sheets by naturally available sources of carbon as solid precursors.

    It delves into three major issues in the field:

    • The low-cost fabrication process for the development of large-scale graphene using natural camphor as a solid source of carbon.

    • The fabrication of graphene-silicon and graphene-silicon nanowire arrays (SiNWAs) Schottky junction near-infrared photodetectors (NIRPDs).

    • The applications of graphene thin film for lithium-ion batteries.

    1. Introduction. 2. Graphene sheets from various carbon precursors. 3. Synthesis of graphene by natural camphor. 4. Graphene-based photodetectors. 5. A Novel Graphene as an Anodic Material for Lithium-Ion Battery. 6. Current and Future Perspective.
