Ultra-thin 2D transition metal monochalcogenide crystals by planarized reactions
Abstract We here present a planarized solid-state chemical reaction that can produce transition metal monochalcogenide (TMMC) 2D crystals with large lateral extent and finely controllable thickness down to individual layers. The enhanced lateral diffusion of a gaseous reactant at the interface betwe...
