Abstract
Photoelectrochemical and electrochemical water splitting was examined using ruthenate nanoflake (RuNF) and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) hybrids. A two-dimensional and visible-light-responsive photocatalyst g-C3N4 was hybridized with the RuNFs that we recently synthesized via a bottom-up process in aqueous solution, yielding 2D/2D nanocomposites. The influence of the 2D/2D nanocomposites on oxygen and hydrogen evolution during photoelectrochemical and electrochemical water splitting was investigated. First, electrolysis of a Na2SO4 aqueous solution was conducted with intermittent photo-irradiation. Both the g-C3N4 electrode and the RuNF/g-C3N4 hybrid electrode provided anodic and cathodic photocurrents at high and low potentials, respectively; however, the copresence of RuNFs decreased the photocurrents, probably because the RuNFs retarded the light absorption by g-C3N4. Moreover, the use of RuNF/g-C3N4 hybrids as electrodes facilitated both the oxygen and hydrogen evolution reactions without photo-irradiation. However, for the oxygen evolution reaction, the effect of the RuNFs was similar to that of RuO2 nanoparticles, indicating that the influence of the type and morphology of ruthenium species on the oxygen evolution reaction was small. Conversely, irrespective of the pH of the aqueous solutions in an electrolytic bath, the 2D/2D nanostructure of RuNFs and g-C3N4 decreased the overpotential of the hydrogen evolution reaction. However, the use of RuO2 particles instead of RuNFs did not cause such a phenomenon. Thus, it was revealed that the RuNFs synthesized via a bottom-up process were useful as a co-catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction.

Abstract
Stanene nanodots (SnNDs) derived from layered tin have attracted considerable interest due to their conveniently tunable bandgap and topological superconductivity. However, high-yield exfoliation of ultrathin SnNDs is still a challenge due to the short layer spacing and strong binding energy. In this work, atomically thin SnNDs with a uniform size of 2.3 nm are successfully prepared by utilizing imidazolium ionic liquid-assisted exfoliation. The obtained SnNDs possess a wide bandgap of 2.69 eV, along with notable solvent compatibility (well dispersed in both polar and nonpolar solvents) and excellent stability. Furthermore, we construct Ir(ppy)3-based green OLED with hybridizing SnNDs and graphene oxide (GO) as the hole injection layer (HIL). It proves that the application of SnNDs helps to modulate the work function and passivate surface defects of GO, increasing hole mobility and thereby improving the device performance. Compared to the PEDOT:PSS-based control device, the optimized SnNDs-GO-based OLED demonstrates an improvement of 6.56, 41.06, and 8.16% in current efficiency (CE), power efficiency (PE), and external quantum efficiency (EQE), respectively. This work not only introduces a new approach to preparing 2D SnNDs but also creates a novel HIL material for OLED devices.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor field-effect film transistors combine large carrier mobility with mechanical flexibility and therefore can be ideally suitable for wearable electronics or at the sensor interfaces of smart sensor systems. However, such applications require large-area solution processing as opposed to single-flake devices, where the critical challenge to overcome is the high interflake resistance values. In this report, using a narrow-channel, near-vertical transport device architecture, we have fabricated inkjet-printed sub-20 nm channel electrolyte-gated transistors with predominantly intraflake carrier transport. Therefore, the electronics transport in these transistors is not dominated by the high interflake resistance, and the intraflake material properties including doping density, defect concentration, contact resistance, and threshold voltage modulation can be examined and optimized independently to achieve a current density as high as 280 μA·μm-1. In addition, through the passivation of the sulfur vacancies with a tailored surface treatment, we demonstrate an impressive On-Off current ratio exceeding 1 × 107, complemented by a low subthreshold swing of 100 mV·decade-1. Next, exploiting these high-performance transistors, unipolar depletion-load-type inverters have been fabricated that show a maximum gain of 31. Furthermore, we have realized NAND, NOR, and OR gates, demonstrating their seamless operation at a frequency of 1 kHz. Therefore, this work represents an important step forward to realize electronic circuits based on printed 2D thin film transistors.

Abstract
Liquid phase exfoliation (LPE) of graphene is a potentially scalable method to produce conductive graphene inks for printed electronic applications. Among LPE methods, wet jet milling (WJM) is an emerging approach that uses high-speed, turbulent flow to exfoliate graphene nanoplatelets from graphite in a continuous flow manner. Unlike prior WJM work based on toxic, high-boiling-point solvents such as n-methyl-2-pyrollidone (NMP), this study uses the environmentally friendly solvent ethanol and the polymer stabilizer ethyl cellulose (EC). Bayesian optimization and iterative batch sampling are employed to guide the exploration of the experimental phase space (namely, concentrations of graphite and EC in ethanol) in order to identify the Pareto frontier that simultaneously optimizes three performance criteria (graphene yield, conversion rate, and film conductivity). This data-driven strategy identifies vastly different optimal WJM conditions compared to literature precedent, including an optimal loading of 15 wt% graphite in ethanol compared to 1 wt% graphite in NMP. These WJM conditions provide superlative graphene production rates of 3.2 g hr-1 with the resulting graphene nanoplatelets being suitable for screen-printed micro-supercapacitors. Finally, life cycle assessment reveals that ethanol-based WJM graphene exfoliation presents distinct environmental sustainability advantages for greenhouse gas emissions, fossil fuel consumption, and toxicity.

Abstract
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) attracts the attention of the scientific community due to its thickness dependent properties. To fully exploit these features, it is necessary to produce the material in mono or few-layers on a large scale. Several methodologies have been developed for this purpose, the most promising one being liquid phase exfoliation (LPE). LPE allows obtaining good quality exfoliated MoS2 in a simple and scalable manner. Herein we report the simultaneous exfoliation and functionalization of MoS2 in chloroform using a specific porphyrin, namely tetrapyridyl porphyrin. We have corroborated that the exfoliation of MoS2 in the volatile solvent increases in the presence of the porphyrin due to the different interactions between them, obtaining dispersions with good concentrations. Additionally, the optical properties of the porphyrin are modified by these interactions. The characterization carried out by several techniques supports the hypothesis that the interactions occur through the pyridyl rings of the porphyrin and the molybdenum atoms of the material.

We start with the chemical principles and protocols of various synthesis methods for 2D TMD nanosheet crystals in the solution phase. The solution-based techniques for depositing ink materials into solid-state thin films are discussed. Then, we review the applications of these solution-processable thin films in diverse technological areas including electronics, optoelectronics, and others. To conclude, a summary of the key scientific/technical challenges and future research opportunities of solution-processable TMD inks is provided.

Abstract
Liquid Phase Exfoliation (LPE) is a very effective technique for the synthesis of few layered two dimensional (2D) nanosheets. There is a surge to find environment friendly solvents for efficient exfoliation of layered materials to produce 2D nanosheets. TiB2 is an important layered material with very little reported work on its 2D nanosheets. The present work is about successful LPE of TiB2 using deionized (DI) water as a clean, green and low cost dispersion medium to make TiB2 nanosheets. The impact of ultrasonication conditions i.e. input power and treatment duration for efficient synthesis of few layered 2D nanosheets in DI water is studied by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). It is found that by increasing input power, the layer thickness is reduced from bulk to 34 nm with lateral dimensions as huge as up to 5 μm. The increased treatment duration has further reduced the layer thickness to 21 nm associated with a decrease in lateral dimensions to about 1 μm. The mechanism of variation in the aspect ratio of the 2D nanosheets with ultrasonication power and treatment duration is explained. The optimum conditions for the fabrication of high aspect ratio 2D nanosheets of TiB2 owe to a greater acoustic cavitation intensity, an optimum treatment duration and a homogenous distribution of the cavitation events while using an appropriate size of the sonotrode in the sonicated volume during ultrasonication.

Abstract
Herein, the sandwich-like W-bridged siligraphene (W/g-SiC) as a heterojunction of WC and siligraphene nanosheets have been first accomplished via a simple green synthesis using Saccharum Ravennae gum as a natural Si and W sources and gelatin as a natural C and N sources. In a magnesiothermic process, Si and C atoms bond together and form a graphene-like structure where half of the C atoms are replaced by Si atoms. The presence of W in the natural precursor creates a W-doped siligraphene structure. Tungsten in the form of carbide (WC) creates a heterojunction with g-SiC, which reduces the bandgap. According to the experimental and computational data, the proposed structure of W/g-SiC was predicted by replacing the W atoms with Si atoms and bonding with C atoms in the siligraphene structure. The W-C bond in this structure is elongated and the W atom comes out of the siligraphene sheet and is placed between two siligraphene layers to interact with three carbons from the next layer. Under visible light irradiation, holes are generated on the g-SiC layers and electrons in the WC interlayer, which makes it a highly efficient photocatalyst with ultrafast charge separation and active surface for the removal of Acetaminophen.

Abstract
In this paper, a high-quality germanene-polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) saturable absorber (SA) with a modulation depth of 3.05% and a saturation intensity of 17.95M W/c m 2 was prepared. Stable conventional mode-locking and harmonic mode-locking (HML) were achieved in germanene-based Er-doped fiber lasers (EDFL) using dispersion management techniques. In a cavity with a net dispersion value of -0.22p s 2, the conventional soliton had a center wavelength of 1558.2 nm, a repetition frequency of 19.09 MHz, and a maximum 3 dB spectrum bandwidth of 3.5 nm. The highest repetition frequencies achieved in cavities with net dispersion values of -2.81p s 2, -1.73p s 2, and -1.09p s 2 were 9.48 MHz, 12.75 MHz, and 12.10 MHz for HML, respectively. Furthermore, the effects of dispersion, power, and the polarization state on HML were systematically investigated. Our research results fully demonstrate the capability of germanene as an optical modulator in generating conventional mode-locked and harmonic mode-locked solitons. This provides meaningful references for promoting its application in ultrafast fiber lasers.

Abstract
Zeolites are highly efficient industrial catalysts and sorbents with microporous framework structures. Approximately 10% of the frameworks, but eventually all in the long run, have produced both 3D crystals and 2D layers. The latter can be intercalated and expanded like all 2D materials but proved difficult to exfoliate directly into suspensions of monolayers in solution as precursors for unique synthetic opportunities. Successful exfoliations have been reported recently and are overviewed in this perspective article. The discussion highlights 3 primary challenges in this field, namely finding suitable 2D zeolite preparations that exfoliate directly in high yield, proving uniform layer thickness in solution and identifying applications to exploit the unique synthetic capabilities and properties of exfoliated zeolite monolayers. Four zeolites have been confirmed to exfoliate directly into monolayers: 3 with known structures-MWW, MFI, and RWR and one unknown, bifer with a unit cell close to ferrierite. The exfoliation into monolayers is confirmed by the combination of 5-6 characterization techniques including AFM, in situ and in-plane XRD, and microscopies. The promising areas of development are oriented films and membranes, intimately mixed zeolite phases, and hierarchical nanoscale composites with other active species like nanoparticles and clusters that are unfeasible by solid state processes.

Abstract
This study proposes the fabrication of a highly sensitive electrochemical immunosensor for label-free detection of EpCAM antigen. MXenes, novel 2D materials have become popular owing to their unique electrochemical properties. Unlike conventional immunosensors, which are unable to detect the carcinoma at primary stage and also time consuming, the use of highly conducting MXene provides a label-free and highly sensitive immunosensor. Herein, we develop a unique immunosensor, which is based on the in-situ growth of 2D-TiO2 onto the novel 2D-Ti3C2Tx sheets by hydrothermal treatment. The 2D/2D TiO2/Ti3C2Tx hybrid provides a platform having a large effective surface area, and more number of electrochemically active sites to enhance the electron transfer rate through the redox probe. The designed sensing platform, BSA/anti-EpCAM/TiO2/Ti3C2Tx@ITO shows a broad linear range (1 ag/mL to 10 ng/mL) with high sensitivity (6.661 µA ag-1 mL cm-2), and low detection limit (0.7 ag/mL) for EpCAM antigen detection under optimized conditions. The proposed immunosensor possesses good reproducibility, long-term stability, and outstanding selectivity and specificity. Moreover, the clinical applicability of the novel immunosensor is tested in spiked human serum showing good recovery.

Abstract
Research on hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) 2-dimensional nanostructures has gained traction due to their unique chemical, thermal, and electronic properties. However, to make use of these exceptional properties and fabricate macroscopic materials, hBN often needs to be exfoliated and dispersed in a solvent. In this review, we provide an overview of the many different methods that have been used for dispersing hBN. The approaches that will be covered in this review include solvents, covalent functionalization, acids and bases, surfactants and polymers, biomolecules, intercalating agents, and thermal expansion. The properties of the exfoliated sheets obtained and the dispersions are discussed, and an overview of the work in the field throughout the years is provided.

Various optimization strategies are outlined to improve their performances, and recent advances are combined to present a coherent understanding of the mechanism of SC CO2 acting on these functional nanostructures. The wide applications of these special nanostructures in catalysis, biosensing, optoelectronics, microelectronics, and energy transformation are discussed.

Abstract
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), with superior mechanical and electrical conductivity, are one of the most promising two-dimensional materials for creating a generation of intelligent and flexible electronic devices. However, due to the high van der Waals and electrostatic attraction, TMD nanomaterials tend to aggregate in dispersants to achieve a stable state, thus severely limiting their further applications. Surface chemical modification is a common strategy for improving the dispersity of TMD nanomaterials; however, there are still constraints such as limited functionalization methods, low grafting rate, and difficult practice application. Thus, it is challenging to develop innovative surface modification systems. Herein, we covalently modify an olefin molecule on surface-inert MoS2, and the modified MoS2 can be used as not only a catalyst for hydrogel polymerization, but also a cross-linker in the hydrogel network. Specifically, allyl is covalently grafted onto chemically exfoliated MoS2, and this modified MoS2 can be uniformly dispersed in polar solvents (such as acetone, N,N-dimethylformamide, and ethanol), remaining stable for more than 2 weeks. The allyl-modified MoS2 can catalyze the polymerization of polyacrylamide hydrogel and then integrate in the network, which increases the tensile strength of the composite hydrogel. The flexible sensor based on the composite hydrogel exhibits an ideal operating range of 600% and a quick response time of 150 ms. At the same time, the flexible device can also track the massive axial stretching movements of human joints, making it a reliable option for the next wave of wearable sensing technology.

Abstract
The adverse effects of NO2 on the environment and human health promote the development of high-performance gas sensors to address the need for monitoring. Two-dimensional (2D) metal chalcogenides have been considered an emerging group of NO2-sensitive materials, while incomplete recovery and low long-term stability are the two major hurdles for their practical implementation. The transformation into oxychalcogenides is an effective strategy to alleviate these drawbacks, but usually requires multiple-step synthesis and lacks controllability. Here, we prepare tailorable 2D p-type gallium oxyselenide with the thicknesses of 3-4 nm, through a single-step mechanochemical synthesis that combines the in-situ exfoliation and oxidation of bulk crystals. The optoelectronic NO2 sensing performances of such 2D gallium oxyselenide with different oxygen contents are investigated at room temperature, in which 2D GaSe0.58O0.42 exhibits the largest response magnitude of 82.2% towards 10 ppm NO2 at the irradiation of UV, with full reversibility, excellent selectivity, and long term stability for at least one month. Such overall performances are significantly improved over those of reported oxygen-incorporated metal chalcogenide-based NO2 sensors. This work provides a feasible approach to prepare 2D metal oxychalcogenides in a single-step manner and demonstrates their great potential for room-temperature fully reversible gas sensing.

Abstract
Covalent triazine networks are interesting candidates for organic electrocatalytic materials due to their tunable, durable and sustainable nature. However, the limited availability of molecular designs that ensure both two-dimensionality and functional groups in the π-conjugated plane has hindered their development. In this work, a layered triazine network composed of thiophene and pyridine ring was synthesized by the novel mild liquid phase condition. The resulting network showed layered nature since its intramolecular interaction stabilized its planar conformation. The connection on the 2-position of the heteroaromatic ring prevents steric hindrance. The simple acid treatment method could be used to exfoliate the networks, resulting in high yields of nanosheets. The planar triazine network showed superior electrocatalytic properties for the oxygen reduction reaction in the structure-defined covalent organic networks.

Abstract
During water electrolysis, adding an electrocatalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is necessary to reduce the activation barrier and thus enhance the reaction rate. Metal chalcogenide-based 2D nanomaterials have been studied as an alternative to noble metal electrocatalysts because of their interesting electrocatalytic properties and low costs of production. However, the difficulty in improving the catalytic efficiency and industrializing the synthetic methods have become a problem in the potential application of these species in electrocatalysis. Liquid-phase exfoliation (LPE) is a low-cost and scalable technique for lab- and industrial-scale synthesis of 2D-material colloidal inks. In this work, we present, to the best of our knowledge, for the first time a systematic study on the surfactant-assisted LPE of bulk Bi2S3 crystalline powder to produce nanosheets (NSs). Different dispersing agents and LPE conditions have been tested in order to obtain colloidal low-dimensional Bi2S3 NSs in H2O at optimized concentrations. Eventually, colloidally stable layered nano-sized Bi2S3 suspensions can be produced with yields of up to ~12.5%. The thus obtained low-dimensional Bi2S3 is proven to be more active for HER than the bulk starting material, showing an overpotential of only 235 mV and an optimized Tafel slope of 125 mV/dec. Our results provide a facile top-down method to produce nano-sized Bi2S3 through a green approach and demonstrate that this material can have a good potential as electrocatalyst for HER.

Abstract
The development of high-precision large-area optical coatings and devices comprising low-dimensional materials hinges on scalable solution-based manufacturability with control over exfoliation procedure-dependent effects. As such, it is critical to understand the influence of technique-induced transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) optical properties that impact the design, performance, and integration of advanced optical coatings and devices. Here, we examine the optical properties of semiconducting MoS2 films from the exfoliation formulations of four prominent approaches: solvent-mediated exfoliation, chemical exfoliation with phase reconversion, redox exfoliation, and native redox exfoliation. The resulting MoS2 films exhibit distinct refractive indices (n), extinction coefficients (k), dielectric functions (ε1 and ε2), and absorption coefficients (α). For example, a large index contrast of Δn ≈ 2.3 is observed. These exfoliation procedures and related chemistries produce different exfoliated flake dimensions, chemical impurities, carrier doping, and lattice strain that influence the resulting optical properties. First-principles calculations further confirm the impact of lattice defects and doping characteristics on MoS2 optical properties. Overall, incomplete phase reconfiguration (from 1T to mixed crystalline 2H and amorphous phases), lattice vacancies, intraflake strain, and Mo oxidation largely contribute to the observed differences in the reported MoS2 optical properties. These findings highlight the need for controlled technique-induced effects as well as the opportunity for continued development of, and improvement to, liquid phase exfoliation methodologies. Such chemical and processing-induced effects present compelling routes to engineer exfoliated TMDC optical properties toward the development of next-generation high-performance mirrors, narrow bandpass filters, and wavelength-tailored absorbers.

One-pot carboxyl enrichment fosters water-dispersibility of reduced graphene oxide: a combined experimental and theoretical assessment. NANOSCALE ADVANCES 2023; 5:893-906.

Abstract
Graphene, one of the allotropic forms of carbon, has attracted enormous interest in the last few years due to its unique properties. Reduced graphene oxide (RGO) is known as the nanomaterial most similar to graphene in terms of electronic, chemical, mechanical, and optical properties. It is prepared from graphene oxide (GO) in the presence of different types of reducing agents. Nevertheless, the application of RGO is still limited, owing to its tendency to irreversibly aggregate in an aqueous medium. Herein, we disclosed the preparation of water-dispersible RGO from GO previously enriched with additional carboxyl functional groups through a one-pot reaction, followed by chemical reduction. This novel and unprecedentedly reported reactivity of GO toward the acylating agent succinic anhydride (SA) was experimentally investigated through XPS, Raman, FT-IR, and UV-Vis, and corroborated by DFT calculations, which have shown a peculiar involvement in the functionalization reaction of both epoxide and hydroxyl functional groups. This proposed synthetic protocol avoids use of sodium cyanide, previously reported for carboxylation of graphene, and focuses on the sustainable and scalable preparation of a water-dispersible RGO, paving the way for its application in many fields where the colloidal stability in aqueous medium is required.

Abstract
Achieving a sustainable production of pristine high-quality graphene and other layered materials at a low cost is one of the bottlenecks that needs to be overcome for reaching 2D material applications at a large scale. Liquid phase exfoliation in conjunction with N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) is recognized as the most efficient method for both the exfoliation and dispersion of graphene. Unfortunately, NMP is neither sustainable nor suitable for up-scaling production due to its adverse impact on the environment. Here, we show the real potential of green solvents by revealing the independent contributions of their exfoliation efficiency and graphene dispersibility to the graphene yield. By experimentally separating these two factors, we demonstrate that the exfoliation efficiency of a given solvent is independent of its dispersibility. Our studies revealed that isopropanol can be used to exfoliate graphite as efficiently as NMP. Our finding is corroborated by the matching ratio between the polar and dispersive energies of graphite and that of the solvent surface tension. This direct evidence of exfoliation efficiency and dispersibility of solvents paves the way to developing a deeper understanding of the real potential of sustainable graphene manufacturing at a large scale.

Abstract
Although polymers are very important and vastly used materials, their physical properties are limited. Therefore, they are reinforced with fillers to relieve diverse restrictions and expand their application areas. The exceptional properties of graphene make it an interesting material with huge potential for application in various industries and devices. The interfacial interaction between graphene and the polymer matrix improved the uniform graphene dispersion in the polymer matrix, enhancing the general nanocomposite performance. Therefore, graphene functionalization is essential to enhance the interfacial interaction, maintain excellent properties, and obstruct graphene agglomeration. Many studies have reported that graphene/polymer nanocomposites have exceptional properties that enable diverse applications. The use of graphene/polymer nanocomposites is expected to increase sustainably and to transform from a basic to an advanced material to offer optimum solutions to industry and consumers.

Abstract
We report a highly efficient and easily transferable poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-assisted exfoliation method, which allows one to obtain van der Waals materials on large scales, e.g., centimeter-scale graphite flakes and hundred-micrometer-scale several layers of ZnIn2S4 and BN. The present exfoliation scheme is nondestructive, and the materials prepared by PVA-assisted exfoliation can be directly fabricated into devices. This exfoliation approach could be helpful in overcoming the preparation bottleneck for large-scale applications of two-dimensional (2D) materials.

Abstract
For nearly 15 years, researchers have been using liquid-phase exfoliation (LPE) to produce 2D nanosheets from layered crystals. This has yielded multiple 2D materials in a solution-processable form whose utility has been demonstrated in multiple applications. It was believed that the exfoliation of such materials is enabled by the very large bonding anisotropy of layered materials where the strength of intralayer chemical bonds is very much larger than that of interlayer van der Waals bonds. However, over the last five years, a number of papers have raised questions about our understanding of exfoliation by describing the LPE of nonlayered materials. These results are extremely surprising because, as no van der Waals gap is present to provide an easily cleaved direction, the exfoliation of such compounds requires the breaking of only chemical bonds. Here the progress in this unexpected new research area is examined. The structure and properties of nanoplatelets produced by LPE of nonlayered materials are reviewed. A number of unexplained trends are found, not least the preponderance of isotropic materials that have been exfoliated to give high-aspect-ratio nanoplatelets. Finally, the applications potential of this new class of 2D materials are considered.

Abstract
A self-grinding exfoliation strategy that depends on mutual shear friction between flake graphite particles is successfully developed to prepare pristine graphene with largely enhanced yield and productivity. Bioinspired assembly of pristine graphene nanosheets to an interconnected aramid nanofiber network is achieved by a continuous sol-gel-film transformation strategy and generates a flexible yet highly thermoconductive film. Flexible yet highly thermoconductive materials are essential for the development of next-generation flexible electronic devices. Herein, we report a bioinspired nanostructured film with the integration of large ductility and high thermal conductivity based on self-exfoliated pristine graphene and three-dimensional aramid nanofiber network. A self-grinding strategy to directly exfoliate flake graphite into few-layer and few-defect pristine graphene is successfully developed through mutual shear friction between graphite particles, generating largely enhanced yield and productivity in comparison to normal liquid-based exfoliation strategies, such as ultrasonication, high-shear mixing and ball milling. Inspired by nacre, a new bioinspired layered structural design model containing three-dimensional nanofiber network is proposed and implemented with an interconnected aramid nanofiber network and high-loading graphene nanosheets by a developed continuous assembly strategy of sol-gel-film transformation. It is revealed that the bioinspired film not only exhibits nacre-like ductile deformation behavior by releasing the hidden length of curved aramid nanofibers, but also possesses good thermal transport ability by directionally conducting heat along pristine graphene nanosheets.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) anatase titanium dioxide (TiO2) is expected to exhibit different properties as compared to anatase nanocrystallites, due to its highly reactive exposed facets. However, access to 2D anatase TiO2 is limited by the non-layered nature of the bulk crystal, which does not allow use of top-down chemical exfoliation. Large efforts have been dedicated to the growth of 2D anatase TiO2 with high reactive facets by bottom-up approaches, which relies on the use of harmful chemical reagents. Here, we demonstrate a novel fluorine-free strategy based on topochemical conversion of 2D 1T-TiS2 for the production of single crystalline 2D anatase TiO2, exposing the {001} facet on the top and bottom and {100} at the sides of the nanosheet. The exposure of these faces, with no additional defects or doping, gives rise to a significant activity enhancement in the hydrogen evolution reaction, as compared to commercially available Degussa P25 TiO2 nanoparticles. Because of the strong potential of TiO2 in many energy-based applications, our topochemical approach offers a low cost, green and mass scalable route for production of highly crystalline anatase TiO2 with well controlled and highly reactive exposed facets.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have garnered significant attention due to their ultrathin 2D structures with a high degree of anisotropy and functionality. Reliable manipulation of interfaces between 2D materials and biomaterials is a new frontier for biomedical nanoscience and combining biomaterials with 2D materials offers a promising way to fabricate innovative 2D biomaterials composites with distinct functionality for biomedical applications. Here, we focus exclusively on a summary of the current work in the interface investigation of 2D biomaterials. Specifically, we highlight extraordinary features that make 2D materials so desirable, as well as the molecular level interactions between 2D materials and biomaterials that have been studied thus far. Furthermore, the approaches for investigating the interface characteristics of 2D biomaterials are presented and described in depth. To capture the emerging trend in mass manufacturing of 2D materials, we review the research progress on biomaterial-assisted exfoliation. Finally, we present a critical assessment of newly developed 2D biomaterials in biomedical applications.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have attracted interest from the scientific community due to their unique properties. The production of these materials has been carried out by diverse methodologies, the liquid phase exfoliation being the most promising one due to its simplicity and potential scalability. The use of several stabilizers allows to obtain dispersions of these 2D nanomaterials in solvents with low boiling points. Herein we describe a general exfoliation method for different 2D materials employing a biphasic water/dichloromethane system and two different (poly)aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). This method allows us to obtain dispersions of the exfoliated 2D materials with high concentrations in the organic solvent. Due to the low boiling point of dichloromethane, and therefore its easy removal, the obtained dispersions can be employed as additives for different composites. We corroborate that the exfoliation efficiency is improved due to the π-π and van der Waals interactions between the PAHs and the layers of the 2D materials.

Abstract
Nanomaterials (NMs) with unique structures and compositions can give rise to exotic physicochemical properties and applications. Despite the advancement in solution-based methods, scalable access to a wide range of crystal phases and intricate compositions is still challenging. Solid-state reaction (SSR) syntheses have high potential owing to their flexibility toward multielemental phases under feasibly high temperatures and solvent-free conditions as well as their scalability and simplicity. Controlling the nanoscale features through SSRs demands a strategic nanospace-confinement approach due to the risk of heat-induced reshaping and sintering. Here, we describe advanced SSR strategies for NM synthesis, focusing on mechanistic insights, novel nanoscale phenomena, and underlying principles using a series of examples under different categories. After introducing the history of classical SSRs, key theories, and definitions central to the topic, we categorize various modern SSR strategies based on the surrounding solid-state media used for nanostructure growth, conversion, and migration under nanospace or dimensional confinement. This comprehensive review will advance the quest for new materials design, synthesis, and applications.

Abstract
Fluorinated graphene (FG), as an emerging member of the graphene derivatives family, has attracted wide attention on account of its excellent performances and underlying applications. The introduction of a fluorine atom, with the strongest electronegativity (3.98), greatly changes the electron distribution of graphene, resulting in a series of unique variations in optical, electronic, magnetic, interfacial properties and so on. Herein, recent advances in the study of FG from synthesis to applications are introduced, and the relationship between its structure and properties is summarized in detail. Especially, the functional chemistry of FG has been thoroughly analyzed in recent years, which has opened a universal route for the functionalization and even multifunctionalization of FG toward various graphene derivatives, which further broadens its applications. Moreover, from a particular angle, the structure engineering of FG such as the distribution pattern of fluorine atoms and the regulation of interlayer structure when advanced nanotechnology gets involved is summarized. Notably, the elaborated structure engineering of FG is the key factor to optimize the corresponding properties for potential applications, and is also an up-to-date research hotspot and future development direction. Finally, perspectives and prospects for the problems and challenges in the study of FG are put forward.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials are an emerging class of biomaterials with remarkable potential for biomedical applications. The planar topography of these nanomaterials confers unique physical, chemical, electronic and optical properties, making them attractive candidates for therapeutic delivery, biosensing, bioimaging, regenerative medicine, and additive manufacturing strategies. The high surface-to-volume ratio of 2D nanomaterials promotes enhanced interactions with biomolecules and cells. A range of 2D nanomaterials, including transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), layered double hydroxides (LDHs), layered silicates (nanoclays), 2D metal carbides and nitrides (MXenes), metal-organic framework (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and polymer nanosheets have been investigated for their potential in biomedical applications. Here, we will critically evaluate recent advances of 2D nanomaterial strategies in biomedical engineering and discuss emerging approaches and current limitations associated with these nanomaterials. Due to their unique physical, chemical, and biological properties, this new class of nanomaterials has the potential to become a platform technology in regenerative medicine and other biomedical applications.

To date, nanotechnology has increasingly been identified as a promising and efficient means to address a number of challenges associated with public health. In the past decade, two-dimensional (2D) biomaterials, as a unique nanoplatform with planar topology, have attracted explosive interest in various fields such as biomedicine due to their unique morphology, physicochemical properties and biological effect. Motivated by the progress of graphene in biomedicine, dozens of types of ultrathin 2D biomaterials have found versatile bio-applications, including biosensing, biomedical imaging, delivery of therapeutic agents, cancer theranostics, tissue engineering, as well as others. The effective utilization of 2D biomaterials stems from the in-depth knowledge of structure-property-bioactivity-biosafety-application-performance relationships. A comprehensive summary of 2D biomaterials for biomedicine is still lacking. In this comprehensive review, we aim to concentrate on the state-of-the-art 2D biomaterials with a particular focus on their versatile biomedical applications. In particular, we discuss the design, fabrication and functionalization of 2D biomaterials used for diverse biomedical applications based on the up-to-date progress. Furthermore, the interactions between 2D biomaterials and biological systems on the spatial-temporal scale are highlighted, which will deepen the understanding of the underlying action mechanism of 2D biomaterials aiding their design with improved functionalities. Finally, taking the bench-to-bedside as a focus, we conclude this review by proposing the current crucial issues/challenges and presenting the future development directions to advance the clinical translation of these emerging 2D biomaterials.

Abstract
In recent times, the supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) process has attracted increasing attention in fabricating diverse materials due to the attractive features of environmentally benign nature and economically promising character. Owing to these unique characteristics and high-penetrability, as well as diffusivity conditions of scCO2, this high-pressure technology, with mild operation conditions, cost-effective, and non-toxic, among others, is often applied to fabricate various organic and inorganic-based materials, resulting in the unique crystal architectures (amorphous, crystalline, and heterojunction), tunable architectures (nanoparticles, nanosheets, and aerogels) for diverse applications. In this review, we give an emphasis on the fabrication of various inorganic-based materials, highlighting the recent research on the driving factors for improving the quality of fabrication in scCO2, procedures for production and dispersion in scCO2, as well as common indicators utilized to assess quality and processing ability of materials. Next, we highlight the effects of specific properties of scCO2 towards synthesizing the highly functional inorganic-based nanomaterials. Finally, we summarize this compilation with interesting perspectives, aiming to arouse a more comprehensive utilization of scCO2 to broaden the horizon in exploring the green/eco-friendly processing of such versatile inorganic-based materials. Together, we firmly believe that this compilation endeavors to disclose the latent capability and universal prevalence of scCO2 in the synthesis and processing of inorganic-based materials.

Abstract
Current trends in scientific studies focus on the development of smartphone-based biosensors via green nanoparticle for clinical diagnosis, food, and environmental monitoring. In this study, we developed a novel portable smartphone-based biosensor via green dendrimer-coated matcha extract/silver nanoparticles (ME-Ag NPs) enriched with polyphenol for detecting hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Also, we investigated the biological evaluation of the nanostructure as a safe preservative for use in biomedical applications. Ag NPs were prepared using a green sonochemical method and were characterized to determine surface and chemical properties by different techniques such as scanning electron microscopy-energy-dispersive X-ray, transmission electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller. Furthermore, antimicrobial and antifungal properties of ME-Ag NPs were investigated against pathogenic microorganisms such as Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aureginosa, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans, and Aspergillus brasiliensis. The experimental sensor methodology was based on the detection of H2O2 by analysis of images of novel silver nanostructure-coated papers and processing of color histograms with a RGB (red-green-blue) analyzer software. Consequently, the smartphone-based biosensor exhibited high sensitivity with detection limits of 0.82 μM response time of 5 s. The smartphone-based biosensor via ME-Ag NPs provided a rapid and selective detection of H2O2.

Abstract
Owing to their extraordinary physical and chemical properties, two-dimensional (2D) materials have aroused extensive attention and have been widely used in photonic and optoelectronic devices, catalytic reactions, and biomedicine. In particular, 2D materials possess a unique bandgap structure and nonlinear optical properties, which can be used as saturable absorbers in ultrafast lasers. Here, we mainly review the top-down and bottom-up methods for preparing 2D materials, such as graphene, topological insulators, transition metal dichalcogenides, black phosphorus, and MXenes. Then, we focus on the ultrafast applications of 2D materials at the typical operating wavelengths of 1, 1.5, 2, and 3 μm. The key parameters and output performance of ultrafast pulsed lasers based on 2D materials are discussed. Furthermore, an outlook regarding the fabrication methods and the development of 2D materials in ultrafast photonics is also presented.

Abstract
Realization of graphene-based sensors and electronic devices remains challenging, in part due to integration challenges with current fabrication and manufacturing processes. Thus, scalable methods for in situ fabrication of high-quality graphene-like materials are essential. Low-cost CO2 laser engravers can be used for site-selective conversion of polyimide under ambient conditions to create 3-D, rotationally disordered, few-layer, porous, graphene-like electrodes. However, the influences of non-linear parameter terms and interactions between key parameters on the graphitization process present challenges for rapid, resource-efficient optimization. An iterative optimization strategy was developed to identify promising regions in parameter space for two key parameters, laser power and scan speed, with the goal of optimizing electrode performance while maximizing scan speed and hence fabrication throughput. The strategy employed iterations of Design of Experiments Response Surface (DoE-RS) methods combined with choices of readily measurable parameters to minimize measurement resources and time. The initial DoE-RS experiment set employed visual response parameters, while subsequent iterations used sheet resistance as the optimization parameter. The final model clearly demonstrates that laser graphitization through raster scanning is a highly non-linear process requiring polynomial terms in scan speed and laser power up to fifth order. Two regions of interest in parameter space were identified using this strategy: Region 1 represents the global minimum for sheet resistance for this laser (∼16 Ω/sq), found at a low scan speed (70 mm/s) and a low average power (2.1 W) . Region 2 is a local minimum for sheet resistance (36 Ω/sq), found at higher values for scan speed (340 mm/s) and average power (3.4 W), allowing ∼5-fold reduction in write time. Importantly, these minima do not correspond to constant ratios of average laser power to scan speed. This highlights the benefits of DoE-RS methods in rapid identification of optimum parameter combinations that would be difficult to discover using traditional one-factor-at-a-time optimization. Verification data from Raman spectroscopy showed sharp 2D peaks with mean full-width-at-half-maximum intensity values <80 cm-1 for both regions, consistent with high-quality 3D graphene-like carbon. Graphene-based electrodes fabricated using the parameters from the respective regions yielded similar performance when employed as capacitive humidity sensors with hygroscopic dielectric layers. Devices fabricated using Region 1 parameters (16 Ω/sq) yielded capacitance responses of 0.78 ± 0.04 pF at 0% relative humidity (RH), increasing to 31 ± 7 pF at 85.1% RH. Region 2 devices (36 Ω/sq) showed comparable responses (0.88 ± 0.04 pF at 0% RH, 28 ± 5 pF at 85.1% RH).
