Abstract

The incorporation of graphene, known for its outstanding electrical, mechanical, and thermal characteristics, with infrared (IR) technology, has emerged as a promising research domain with potential applications spanning environmental monitoring, healthcare diagnostics, and security enhancements. Through a bibliometric analysis of a vast array of recent publications, this study examines the growth, trends, and pivotal contributors in the field of graphene-IR research. Our findings demonstrate a significant increase in research activities, highlighting the field's growing importance in the development of sensors, modulators, and detectors leveraging graphene. This research is identified as inherently interdisciplinary, merging insights from materials science, photonics, and nanotechnology. A notable transition is observed from theoretical research towards practical applications, with an emphasis on the healthcare and defense industries, reflecting a broader interest in graphene-IR devices' performance enhancement. The analysis also points to an expanding research landscape that includes the exploration of other two-dimensional materials and the innovation of new device structures. This paper not only outlines the current advancements and challenges in graphene-IR technology but also anticipates its capability to drive forward IR applications through enhanced device performance and innovative approaches. Offering a comprehensive review of the trajectory and potential within this field, the analysis provides valuable insights for researchers navigating the complexities of materials science combined with IR technology, indicating a vibrant growth trajectory and promising future for groundbreaking developments.
