A grand family of two-dimensional (2D) materials and their heterostructures have been
discovered through the extensive experimental and theoretical efforts of chemists, material …

The isolation of graphene in 2004 from graphite was a defining moment for the “birth” of a
field: two-dimensional (2D) materials. In recent years, there has been a rapidly increasing …

Two-dimensional materials offer an exciting platform that enables the creation of van der
Waals heterostructures with rich functions and intriguing physical properties that stem from …

Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), an emerging family of layered
materials, have provided researchers a fertile ground for harvesting fundamental science …

Group 6 transition metal dichalcogenides (G6-TMDs), most notably MoS2, MoSe2, MoTe2,
WS2 and WSe2, constitute an important class of materials with a layered crystal structure …

This book summarizes the current status of theoretical and experimental progress in 2
dimensional graphene-like monolayers and few-layers of transition metal dichalcogenides …

Two-dimensional layered materials, such as graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides
(TMDs), have been under intensive investigation. The rapid progress of research on …

We report how the presence of electron-beam-induced sulfur vacancies affects first-order
Raman modes and correlate the effects with the evolution of the in situ transmission-electron …

Interlayer excitons were observed at the heterojunctions in van der Waals heterostructures
(vdW HSs). However, it is not known how the excitonic phenomena are affected by the …

The research field of two dimensional (2D) materials strongly relies on optical microscopy
characterization tools to identify atomically thin materials and to determine their number of …
