2D nanomaterials have been vigorously investigated due to their superlative mechanical, thermal, and electronic properties. Being composed entirely of surface atoms, they are incredibly amenable to surface modification thus providing the opportunity towards excellent control over their properties. Surface engineering of 2D materials composed of carbon materials, such as graphene, can be achieved by plasma modification. We will discuss our efforts in understanding the chemical, structural, and electrical properties of plasma functionalized graphene by introducing -oxygen, -fluorine, and -nitrogen chemical moities, and discuss their impact on chemical reactivity, electrical transport, and enhanced sensing behavior. Demonstrating how precise nano-engineering of surface chemistry impacts contact engineering, biosensing and device based applications.
