2D Materials
2D materials are ultra-thin materials made of one or a few atomic layers. Their atomic-scale thickness gives them unique electrical, optical, mechanical, and thermal properties that can differ significantly from bulk materials.
Common 2D materials include graphene, MoS₂, WS₂, MoSe₂, WSe₂, h-BN, black phosphorus, and MXenes.
