Javier Sanchez-Yamagishi, a physicist who studies 2D materials at the University of California, Irvine, likens the ...

In an article published in the journal Nature on Thursday, the researchers said that compared to their bulkier counterparts, ...

Sheets of bismuth, gallium, indium, tin and lead can now be made just a few atoms thick by crushing them at a high ...

Last year, a team of global scientists created a single-atom-thick gold sheet, which they dubbed "goldene" to match with ...

The study highlights how defects in graphene sheets alter rippling, offering insights for engineers in materials science and ...

Researchers are exploring materials like carbyne and borophene as stronger alternatives to graphene. Find out how these ...

Scientists discover how defects in the surface of two-dimensional sheets alter ripple effects, even freezing the sheet's motion altogether.

Twistronics is a field of study that emerged from the intersection of nanotechnology and materials science. It involves manipulating the electronic properties of two-dimensional (2D) layered materials ...

While these materials hold many interesting properties, scientists have long wanted to probe thin 2D metals. Now, researchers from the Institute of Physics (IOP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences ...

Worth noting, the team tested whether functionalized graphene sheets could withstand repeated exposure to NH 3 without degrading their gas-sensing performance. Although some irreversible changes ...

Like graphene, MAC is also a 2D or single atom-thick material. But unlike graphene where atoms are arranged in an ordered (crystalline) hexagonal lattice, MAC is a composite material that ...
