In the nanometer range (billionth of a meter), interactions occur between light and matter that do not happen on larger ...

That makes it an ideal candidate to combine with other 2D materials, like graphene. To test whether it was possible to integrate the two materials into a single heterostructure, Hersam’s lab grew both ...

In this review, we summarized all developed methods to prepare 2D perovskite and heterostructures, which would be helpful to explore new strategies for material preparation.” The basis for ...

A Chinese research team has built an all-perovskite tandem solar cell with a 19.6%-efficient wide bandgap top cell relying on a 2D/3D heterostructure and narrow bandgap bottom cell with a 21.3% ...

A recent review in npj 2D Materials and Applications highlights how 2D materials like MoS2 and graphene are enabling ...

the academics adopted a special chemistry engineering strategy to regulate the nucleation kinetics of mixed-dimensional perovskites with a homogeneous 2D/3D bulk heterostructure. Moreover ...

A van der Waals heterostructure is one made of 2D materials that are stacked directly on top of each other like Lego-blocks or a sandwich. The van der Waals force, which is an attractive force ...

"The plausible answer was to make a one-dimensional, metal-semiconductor junction in a 2D heterostructure, thus introducing crystallographic as well as charge asymmetry at the junction." ...

Study: Rapid Layer-Number Identification of MoS2 Nanosheet in MoS2/MoO2 Conformal Heterostructures by Color: Implications for the Fabrication of 2D/3D Heterostructures. Image Credit: ...
