Although the library of 2D atomic crystals has greatly expanded over the past years,
research into graphene is still one of the focuses for both academia and business …

The band gaps of many atomically thin 2D layered materials such as graphene, black
phosphorus, monolayer semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides and hBN range …

Van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs) based on 2D layered materials with selectable
materials properties pave the way to integration at the atomic scale, which may give rise to …

Since graphene became available by a scotch tape technique, a vast class of two-
dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) layered materials has been researched intensively …

Two-dimensional layered materials (2DLMs) have been a central focus of materials
research since the discovery of graphene just over a decade ago. Each layer in 2DLMs …

As the first in a large family of 2D van der Waals (vdW) materials, graphene has attracted
enormous attention owing to its remarkable properties. The recent development of simple …

In this paper, we review the optoelectronic properties and applications of graphene and
graphene heterostructures in recent years. Graphene is a 2D crystal with a single atomic …

Different kinds of 2D materials can be well hybridized by constructing van der Waals
heterostructures of them. Among various kinds of 2D materials, graphene has caught the …

As an emerging class of new materials, two-dimensional (2D) non-graphene materials,
including layered and non-layered, and their heterostructures are currently attracting …

BACKGROUND Materials by design is an appealing idea that is very hard to realize in
practice. Combining the best of different ingredients in one ultimate material is a task for …
