ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2024:e2401946. [PMID: 39103304 DOI: 10.1002/advs.202401946] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2024] [Revised: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 08/07/2024]
Abstract
Nociceptors are key sensory receptors that transmit warning signals to the central nervous system in response to painful stimuli. This fundamental process is emulated in an electronic device by developing a novel artificial nociceptor with an ultrathin, nonstoichiometric gallium oxide (GaOx)-silicon oxide heterostructure. A large-area 2D-GaOx film is printed on a substrate through liquid metal printing to facilitate the production of conductive filaments. This nociceptive structure exhibits a unique short-term temporal response following stimulation, enabling a facile demonstration of threshold-switching physics. The developed heterointerface 2D-GaOx film enables the fabrication of fast-switching, low-energy, and compliance-free 2D-GaOx nociceptors, as confirmed through experiments. The accumulation and extrusion of Ag in the oxide matrix are significant for inducing plastic changes in artificial biological sensors. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy demonstrate that Ag clusters in the material dispersed under electrical bias and regrouped spontaneously when the bias is removed owing to interfacial energy minimization. Moreover, 2D nociceptors are stable; thus, heterointerface engineering can enable effective control of charge transfer in 2D heterostructural devices. Furthermore, the diffusive 2D-GaOx device and its Ag dynamics enable the direct emulation of biological nociceptors, marking an advancement in the hardware implementation of artificial human sensory systems.

Abstract
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) with a two-dimensional (2D) structure and semiconducting features are highly favorable for the production of NH3gas sensors. Among the TMD family, WS2, WSe2, MoS2, and MoSe2exhibit high conductivity and a high surface area, along with high availability, reasons for which they are favored in gas-sensing studies. In this review, we have discussed the structure, synthesis, and NH3sensing characteristics of pristine, decorated, doped, and composite-based WS2, WSe2, MoS2, and MoSe2gas sensors. Both experimental and theoretical studies are considered. Furthermore, both room temperature and higher temperature gas sensors are discussed. We also emphasized the gas-sensing mechanism. Thus, this review provides a reference for researchers working in the field of 2D TMD gas sensors.

Abstract
Since the discovery of graphene, two-dimensional (2D) materials have been anticipated to demonstrate enormous potential in bionanomedicine. Unfortunately, the majority of 2D materials induce nanotoxicity via disruption of the structure of biomolecules. Consequently, there has been an urge to synthesize and identify biocompatible 2D materials. Before the cytotoxicity of 2D nanomaterials is experimentally tested, computational studies can rapidly screen them. Additionally, computational analyses can provide invaluable insights into molecular-level interactions. Recently, various "in silico" techniques have identified these interactions and helped to develop a comprehensive understanding of nanotoxicity of 2D materials. In this article, we discuss the key recent advances in the application of computational methods for the screening of 2D materials for their nanotoxicity toward two important categories of abundant biomolecules, namely, nucleic acids and proteins. We believe the present article would help to develop newer computational protocols for the identification of novel biocompatible materials, thereby paving the way for next-generation biomedical and therapeutic applications based on 2D materials.

Abstract
The rapid advancement of wearable biosensors has revolutionized healthcare monitoring by screening in a non-invasive and continuous manner. Among various sensing techniques, field-effect transistor (FET)-based wearable biosensors attract increasing attention due to their advantages such as label-free detection, fast response, easy operation, and capability of integration. This review explores the innovative developments and applications of FET-based wearable biosensors for healthcare monitoring. Beginning with an introduction to the significance of wearable biosensors, the paper gives an overview of structural and operational principles of FETs, providing insights into their diverse classifications. Next, the paper discusses the fabrication methods, semiconductor surface modification techniques and gate surface functionalization strategies. This background lays the foundation for exploring specific FET-based biosensor designs, including enzyme, antibody and nanobody, aptamer, as well as ion-sensitive membrane sensors. Subsequently, the paper investigates the incorporation of FET-based biosensors in monitoring biomarkers present in physiological fluids such as sweat, tears, saliva, and skin interstitial fluid (ISF). Finally, we address challenges, technical issues, and opportunities related to FET-based biosensor applications. This comprehensive review underscores the transformative potential of FET-based wearable biosensors in healthcare monitoring. By offering a multidimensional perspective on device design, fabrication, functionalization and applications, this paper aims to serve as a valuable resource for researchers in the field of biosensing technology and personalized healthcare.

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.

Abstract
The manipulation of edge configurations and structures in atomically-thin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) for versatile functionalization has attracted intensive interest in recent years. The chemical vapor deposition (CVD) approach has shown promise for TMD edge engineering of atomic edge configurations (1H, 1T or 1T'-zigzag or armchair edges) as well as diverse edge morphologies (1D nanoribbons, 2D dendrites, 3D spirals, etc.). These edge-rich TMD layers offer versatile candidates for probing the physical and chemical properties and exploring potential applications in electronics, optoelectronics, catalysis, sensing, and quantum technologies. In this Review, we present an overview of the current state-of-the-art in the manipulation of TMD atomic edges and edge-rich structures using CVD. We highlight the vast range of distinct properties associated with these edge configurations and structures and provide insights into the opportunities afforded by such edge-functionalized crystals. The objective of this Review is to motivate further research and development efforts to use CVD as a scalable approach to harness the benefits of such crystal-edge engineering.

Brkić AL, Supina A, Čapeta D, Dončević L, Ptiček L, Mandić Š, Racané L, Delač I. Influence of Solvents and Adsorption of Organic Molecules on the Properties of CVD Synthesized 2D MoS 2. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 13:2115. [PMID: 37513127 PMCID: PMC10383348 DOI: 10.3390/nano13142115] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Revised: 07/14/2023] [Accepted: 07/17/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023]
Abstract
We present a simple method for modification of 2D materials by drop-casting of the organic molecule in solution on the 2D material under ambient conditions. Specifically, we investigated the adsorption of 6-(4,5-Dihydro-1H-imidazol-3-ium-2-yl)-2-(naphthalene-2-yl)benzothiazole methanesulfonate (L63MS) organic molecule on 2D MoS2. To better understand the effect of the organic molecule on the 2D material, we also investigated the impact of solvents alone on the materials' properties. The MoS2 samples were synthesized using ambient pressure chemical vapor deposition. Atomic force microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy and optical microscopy were used to characterize the samples. The measurements were performed after synthesis, after the drop-casting of solvents and after the drop-casting of organic molecule solutions. Our results indicate that the used organic molecule effectively adsorbs on and prompts discernible changes in the (opto)electronic properties of the 2D material. These changes encompass variations in the Raman spectra shape, alterations in the photoluminescence (PL) signal characteristics and modifications in excitonic properties. Such alterations can be linked to various phenomena including doping, bandgap modifications, introduction or healing of defects and that the solvent plays a crucial role in the process. Our study provides insights into the modification of 2D materials under ambient conditions and highlights the importance of solvent selection in the process.

Abstract
The investigation of in-plane two-dimensional (2D) anisotropic materials has garnered significant attention due to their exceptional electronic, optical, and mechanical characteristics. The anisotropic optical properties and angle-dependent photodetectors based on 2D anisotropic materials have been extensively studied. However, novel in-plane anisotropic materials still need to be explored to satisfy for distinct environments and devices. Here, we report the remarkable anisotropic behavior of excitons and demonstrate a unique linear-dichroism transition of absorption between ultraviolet and visible light in layered silicon phosphide (SiP) through the analysis of polarization photoluminescence (PL) and absorbance spectra. Its high absorption linear dichroism ratio of 1.16 at 388 nm, 1.15 at 532 nm, and 1.19 at 733 nm is revealed, suggesting the brilliant non-isotropic responses. The robust periodic variation of the A1 and A2 Raman modes in 2D SiP materials allows for the determination of their crystal orientation. Furthermore, the presence of indirect excitons with phonon sidebands in the temperature-dependent PL spectra exhibits non-monotonic energy shifts with increasing temperature, which is attributed to an enhanced electron-phonon interaction and thermal expansion. Our findings provide valuable insights into the fundamental physical properties of layered SiP and offer guidelines for designing polarization-sensitive photodetectors and angle-dependent devices based on 2D anisotropic materials.

Abstract
Extraordinary properties of two-dimensional materials make them attractive for applications in different fields. One of the prospective niches is optical applications, where such types of materials demonstrate extremely sensitive performance and can be used for labeling. However, the optical properties of liquid-exfoliated 2D materials need to be analyzed. The purpose of this work is to study the absorption and luminescent properties of MoS2 exfoliated in the presence of sodium cholate, which is the most often used surfactant. Ultrasound bath and mixer-assisted exfoliation in water and dimethyl sulfoxide were used. The best quality of MoS2 nanosheets was achieved using shear-assisted liquid-phase exfoliation as a production method and sodium cholate (SC) as a surfactant. The photoluminescent properties of MoS2 nanosheets varied slightly when changing the surfactant concentrations in the range C(SC) = 0.5-2.5 mg/mL. This work is of high practical importance for further enhancement of MoS2 photoluminescent properties via chemical functionalization.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) materials, which possess robust nanochannels, high flux and allow scalable fabrication, provide new platforms for nanofluids. Highly efficient ionic conductivity can facilitate the application of nanofluidic devices for modern energy conversion and ionic sieving. Herein, we propose a novel strategy of building an intercalation crystal structure with negative surface charge and mobile interlamellar ions via aliovalent substitution to boost ionic conductivity. The Li2xM1-xPS3 (M = Cd, Ni, Fe) crystals obtained by the solid-state reaction exhibit distinct capability of water absorption and apparant variation of interlayer spacing (from 0.67 to 1.20 nm). The assembled membranes show the ultrahigh ionic conductivity of 1.20 S/cm for Li0.5Cd0.75PS3 and 1.01 S/cm for Li0.6Ni0.7PS3. This facile strategy may inspire the research in other 2D materials with higher ionic transport performance for nanofluids.

Abstract
The room temperature growth of two-dimensional van der Waals (2D-vdW) materials is indispensable for state-of-the-art nanotechnology. Low temperature growth supersedes the requirement of elevated growth temperatures accompanied with high thermal budgets. Moreover, for electronic applications, low or room temperature growth reduces the possibility of intrinsic film-substrate interfacial thermal diffusion related deterioration of the functional properties and the consequent deterioration of the device performance. Here, we demonstrated the growth of ultrawide-bandgap boron nitride (BN) at room temperature by using the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) process, which exhibited various functional properties for potential applications. Comprehensive chemical, spectroscopic and microscopic characterizations confirmed the growth of ordered nanosheet-like hexagonal BN (h-BN). Functionally, the nanosheets show hydrophobicity, high lubricity (low coefficient of friction), and a low refractive index within the visible to near-infrared wavelength range, and room temperature single-photon quantum emission. Our work unveils an important step that brings a plethora of potential applications for these room temperature grown h-BN nanosheets as the synthesis can be feasible on any given substrate, thus creating a scenario for "h-BN on demand" under a frugal thermal budget.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS Fluidic micelles and reverse micelles have served as exfoliation mediums. However, an additional force, such as extended sonication, is required. Gelatinous cylindrical micelles that are formed once desired conditions are achieved can be an ideal medium for the quick exfoliation of 2D materials without the need for any external force. The quick formation of gelatinous cylindrical micelles can rip off layers from the 2D materials suspended in the mixture leading to the quick exfoliation of 2D materials. EXPERIMENTS Herein, we introduce a quick universal method capable of delivering high-quality exfoliated 2D materials cost-effectively using CTAB-based gelatinous micelles as an exfoliation medium. The approach is devoid of harsh treatment, such as prolonged sonication and heating, and a quick exfoliation of 2D materials is completed using this approach. FINDINGS We successfully exfoliated four 2D materials (MoS2, Graphene, WS2, and BN) and investigated their morphology, chemical, and crystal structure along with optical and electrochemical properties to probe the quality of the exfoliated product. Results revealed that the proposed method is highly efficient in exfoliating 2D materials in a quick time without causing any significant damage to the mechanical integrity of the exfoliated materials.

Abstract
The voyage of semiconductor industry to decrease the size of transistors to achieve superior device performance seems to near its physical dimensional limitations. The quest is on to explore emerging material systems that offer dimensional scaling to match the silicon- based technologies. The discovery of atomic flat two-dimensional materials has opened up a completely new avenue to fabricate transistors at sub-10 nanometer level which has the potential to compete with modern silicon-based semiconductor devices. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is a two-dimensional layered material with novel semiconducting properties at atomic level seems like a promising candidate that can possibly meet the expectation of Moore's law. This review discusses the various 'fabrication challenges' in making MoS2based electronic devices from start to finish. The review outlines the intricate challenges of substrate selection and various synthesis methods of mono layer and few-layer MoS2. The review focuses on the various techniques and methods to minimize interface defect density at substrate/MoS2interface for optimum MoS2-based device performance. The tunable band-gap of MoS2with varying thickness presents a unique opportunity for contact engineering to mitigate the contact resistance issue using different elemental metals. In this work, we present a comprehensive overview of different types of contact materials with myriad geometries that show a profound impact on device performance. The choice of different insulating/dielectric gate oxides on MoS2in co-planar and vertical geometry is critically reviewed and the physical feasibility of the same is discussed. The experimental constraints of different encapsulation techniques on MoS2and its effect on structural and electronic properties are extensively discussed.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have become potential resistive switching (RS) layers to prepare emerging non-volatile memristors. The atomically thin thickness and the highly controllable defect density contribute to the construction of ultimately scaled memory cells with stable switching behaviors. Although the conductive bridge random-access memory based on 2D hexagonal boron nitride has been widely studied, the realization of RS completely relying on vacancies in 2D materials has performance superiority. Here, we synthesize carbon-doped h-BN (C-h-BN) with a certain number of defects by controlling the weight percentage of carbon powder in the source. These defects can form a vacancy-based conductive filament under an applied electric field. The memristor displays bipolar non-volatile memory with a low SET voltage of 0.85 V and shows a long retention time of up to 104 s at 120 °C. The response times of the SET and RESET process are less than 80 ns and 240 ns, respectively. The current mapping by conductive atomic force microscopy demonstrates the electric-field-induced current tunneling from defective sites of the C-h-BN flake, revealing the defect-based RS in the C-h-BN memristor. Moreover, C-h-BN with excellent flexibility can be applied to wearable devices, maintaining stable RS performance in a variety of bending environments and after multiple bending cycles. The vacancy-based 2D memristor provides a new strategy for developing ultra-scaled memory units with high controllability.

SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2023; 19:e2206430. [PMID: 36642833 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202206430] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2022] [Revised: 12/01/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
The attention on group III-VI compounds in the last decades has been centered on the optoelectronic properties of indium and gallium chalcogenides. These outstanding properties are leading to novel advancements in terms of fundamental and applied science. One of the advantages of these compounds is to present laminated structures, which can be exfoliated down to monolayers. Despite the large knowledge gathered toward indium and gallium chalcogenides, the family of the group III-VI compounds embraces several other noncommon compounds formed by the other group III elements. These compounds present various crystal lattices, among which a great deal is offered from layered structures. Studies on aluminium chalcogenides show interesting potential as anodes in batteries and as semiconductors. Thallium (Tl), which is commonly present in the +1 oxidation state, is one of the key components in ternary chalcogenides. However, binary Tl-Q (Q = S, Se, Te) systems and derived films are still studied for their semiconducting and thermoelectric properties. This review aims to summarize the biggest features of these unusual materials and to shed some new light on them with the perspective that in the future, novel studies can revive these compounds in order to give rise to a new generation of technology.

Abstract
Lateral size fractionation of niobate nanosheets derived from K4Nb6O17·3H2O was achieved via phase transfer from the aqueous phase to the 2-butanone phase in a water/2-butanone biphasic system, in which tetra-n-dodecylammonium (TDDA+) bromide was used as a phase transfer reagent. Phase transfer of the nanosheets was observed when the TDDA+/[Nb6O17]4- molar ratios were 0.6 and 1.0, and the phase transfer ratios were 41 and 97%, respectively. FT-IR and thermogravimetry results showed that the extracted nanosheets contained TDDA+ ions. These results indicate that adsorption of TDDA+ likely induced an increase in the hydrophobicity of the nanosheet surface, leading to phase transfer. In the AFM image of the original nanosheets in the aqueous phase, their lateral sizes were in the range from several hundreds of nm to several tens of μm, while those of the nanosheets after phase transfer at a molar ratio of 0.6 were in the range from several hundreds of nm up to 2 μm, indicating that nanosheets with smaller lateral sizes were preferentially extracted into the 2-butanone phase. In addition, the phase transfer ratio of the fragmentated nanosheets with a much smaller lateral size distribution compared with the original nanosheets was 79% when the TDDA+/[Nb6O17]4- molar ratio was 0.6, indicating that phase transfer for the nanosheets with smaller lateral sizes proceeded efficiently. Following this extraction cycle, the nanosheets with a TDDA+/[Nb6O17]4- molar ratio of 0.6 remaining in the aqueous phase after extraction were extracted stepwise again through dilution of the aqueous phase with water and the addition of a fresh 2-butanone solution of tetra-n-dodecylammonium bromide to form a new biphasic system. The lateral sizes of the nanosheets increased as the extraction cycles were repeated. Completion of the three extraction cycles allowed formation of the three classes of the nanosheets with different lateral size ranges of 0.68 ± 0.5, 2.8 ± 1.9, and 6.6 ± 3.1 μm.

Abstract
Layered metal oxoacids hold potential as photocatalysts due to their facile exfoliation to two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets with a large surface area and a short migration distance for photoexcited charge carriers. However, the utilization of electrons in photocatalytic processes is restricted by the competitive trapping of electrons by metal ions. In this work, we attempt to improve the utilization of photogenerated electrons over exfoliated HNb3O8 nanosheets by solution plasma activation. On dispersing exfoliated HNb3O8 nanosheets in ethanol solution plasma, the defects in HNb3O8 can be engineered, and carbon dots (CDs) can be anchored on the surface of HNb3O8 nanosheets in situ. In comparison with pristine HNb3O8 nanosheets, the rate of photocatalytic hydrogen evolution can be increased by 317.7 times over the HNb3O8/C heterojunction, and the apparent quantum efficiency of hydrogen production can be as high as 5.05%. The reason for the high photocatalytic performance is explored by the comparison of activation between plasma-in-ethanol and plasma-in-water, which reveals that CD anchoring and defect engineering indeed promote charge separation and hence lead to enhanced photocatalytic activity. This work provides an alternative approach to synthesize CDs and activate 2D-layered compounds with MO6 (M = Nb, Ti, and W) octahedral building blocks in the host layer for enhanced photocatalytic evolution of hydrogen.

Abstract
Low-dimensional light-emitting materials have been actively investigated due to their unprecedented optical and optoelectronic properties that are not observed in their bulk forms. However, the emission from low-dimensional light-emitting materials is generally weak and difficult to use in nanophotonic devices without being amplified and engineered by optical cavities. Along with studies on various planar optical cavities over the last decade, the physics of cavity-emitter interactions as well as various integration methods are investigated deeply. These integrations not only enhance the light-matter interaction of the emitters, but also provide opportunities for realizing nanophotonic devices based on the new physics allowed by low-dimensional emitters. In this review, the fundamentals, strengths and weaknesses of various planar optical resonators are first provided. Then, commonly used low-dimensional light-emitting materials such as 0D emitters (quantum dots and upconversion nanoparticles) and 2D emitters (transition-metal dichalcogenide and hexagonal boron nitride) are discussed. The integration of these emitters and cavities and the expect interplay between them are explained in the following chapters. Finally, a comprehensive discussion and outlook of nanoscale cavity-emitter integrated systems is provided.

Abstract
MXene emerged as decent 2D material and has been exploited for numerous applications in the last decade. The remunerations of the ideal metallic conductivity, optical absorbance, mechanical stability, higher heterogeneous electron transfer rate, and good redox capability have made MXene a potential candidate for biosensing applications. The hydrophilic nature, biocompatibility, antifouling, and anti-toxicity properties have opened avenues for MXene to perform in vitro and in vivo analysis. In this review, the concept, operating principle, detailed mechanism, and characteristic properties are comprehensively assessed and compiled along with breakthroughs in MXene fabrication and conjugation strategies for the development of unique electrochemical and optical biosensors. Further, the current challenges are summarized and suggested future aspects. This review article is believed to shed some light on the development of MXene for biosensing and will open new opportunities for the future advanced translational application of MXene bioassays.

Abstract
By employing first principles density functional theory calculations on thickness dependent structural and electronic properties of (0001) surface slabs of wurtzite MX compounds, our study demonstrated the possibility of the existence of 2D layered materials from II-VI group traditional semiconducting compounds that are widely used in various fields. Our calculations revealed that (0001) surface slabs of wurtzite ZnO and CdO compounds prefer to stabilize as sp2 hybridized - atomically thin graphitic layers as observed in earlier work, which are separated by van der Waals distances, when compared to the respective wurtzite slabs. On the other hand, for surface slabs of other ZnX and CdX (X = S, Se, Te) compounds, sp3 hybridized bilayers, which comprise an X-Zn(Cd)-Zn(Cd)-X structural arrangement, are energetically stable until certain thicknesses of the slabs. Both 2D layered MO and MX systems are electronically insulating in nature. When increasing the number of layers in these systems, the band gap decreases due to the widening of the energy bands. Our calculations further confirmed that all of these 2D systems possess structural, elastic, and lattice dynamical stabilities, depicting their compatibility in optoelectronics and photovoltaic applications, as confirmed by their effective mass and mobility.

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
In a recent advance, zirconium triselenide (ZrSe3) nanosheets with anisotropic and strain-tunable excitonic response were experimentally fabricated. Motivated by the aforementioned progress, we conduct first-principle calculations to explore the structural, dynamic, Raman response, electronic, single-layer exfoliation energies, and mechanical features of the ZrX3 (X = S, Se, Te) monolayers. Acquired phonon dispersion relations reveal the dynamical stability of the ZrX3 (X = S, Se, Te) monolayers. In order to isolate single-layer crystals from bulk counterparts, exfoliation energies of 0.32, 0.37, and 0.4 J/m2 are predicted for the isolation of ZrS3, ZrSe3, and ZrTe3 monolayers, which are comparable to those of graphene. ZrS3 and ZrSe3 monolayers are found to be indirect gap semiconductors, with HSE06 band gaps of 1.93 and 1.01 eV, whereas the ZrTe3 monolayer yields a metallic character. It is shown that the ZrX3 nanosheets are relatively strong, but with highly anisotropic mechanical responses. This work provides a useful vision concerning the critical physical properties of ZrX3 (X = S, Se, Te) nanosheets.

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
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
As the measurement scale shrinks, the reliability of nanoscale measurement is even more crucial for a variety of applications, including semiconductor electronics, optical metamaterials, and sensors. Specifically, it is difficult to measure the nanoscale morphology at the exact location though it is required for novel applications based on hybrid nanostructures combined with 2D materials. Here, we introduce an advanced hybrid positioning system to measure the region of interest with enhanced speed and high precision. A 5-axis positioning stage (XYZ, R, gripper) makes it possible to align the sample within a 10-μm field of view (FOV) in both the scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the atomic force microscope (AFM). The reproducibility of the sample position was investigated by comparing marker patterns and denting points between the SEM and AFM, revealing an accuracy of 6.5 ± 2.1 μm for the x-axis and 4.5 ± 1.7 μm for the y-axis after 12 repetitions. By applying a different measurement process according to the characteristics of 2D materials, various information such as height, length, or roughness about MoTe2 rods and MoS2 film was obtained in the same measurement area. As a consequence, overlaid two images can be obtained for detailed information about 2D materials.

Abstract
Magnetism in two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) materials has recently emerged as one of the most promising areas in condensed matter research, with many exciting emerging properties and significant potential for applications ranging from topological magnonics to low-power spintronics, quantum computing, and optical communications. In the brief time after their discovery, 2D magnets have blossomed into a rich area for investigation, where fundamental concepts in magnetism are challenged by the behavior of spins that can develop at the single layer limit. However, much effort is still needed in multiple fronts before 2D magnets can be routinely used for practical implementations. In this comprehensive review, prominent authors with expertise in complementary fields of 2D magnetism (i.e., synthesis, device engineering, magneto-optics, imaging, transport, mechanics, spin excitations, and theory and simulations) have joined together to provide a genome of current knowledge and a guideline for future developments in 2D magnetic materials research.

The Influence of Ionic Liquids Adsorption on the Electronic and Optical Properties of Phosphorene and Arsenene with Different Phases: A Computational Study. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27082518. [PMID: 35458716 PMCID: PMC9027769 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27082518] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2022] [Revised: 04/08/2022] [Accepted: 04/10/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been performed to investigate the interfacial interactions of ionic liquids (ILs) on the α- and β-phases of phosphorene (P) and arsenene (As). Nine representative ILs based on the combinations of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ([EMIM]+), N-methylpyridinium ([MPI]+), and trimethylamine ([TMA]+) cations paired to tetrafluoroborate ([BF4]−), trifluoromethanesulfonate ([TFO]−), and chloridion (Cl−) anions were used as adsorbates on the 2D P and As nanosheets with different phases to explore the effect of IL adsorption on the electronic and optical properties of 2D materials. The calculated structure, adsorption energy, and charge transfer suggest that the interaction between ILs and P and As nanosheets is dominated by noncovalent forces, and the most stable adsorption structures are characterized by the simultaneous interaction of the cation and anion with the surface, irrespective of the types of ILs and surfaces. Furthermore, the IL adsorption leads to the larger change in the electronic properties of β-phase P and As than those of their α-phase counterparts, which demonstrates that the adsorption properties are not only related to the chemical elements, but also closely related to the phase structures. The present results provide insight into the further applications of ILs and phosphorene (arsenene) hybrid materials.

Abstract
Borophene, a crystalline allotrope of monolayer boron, with a combination of triangular lattice and hexagonal holes, has stimulated wide interest in 2-dimensional materials and their applications. Although their properties are theoretically confirmed, they are yet to be explored and confirmed experimentally. In this review article, we present advancements in research on borophene, its synthesis, and unique properties, including its advantages for various applications with theoretical predictions. The uniqueness of borophene over graphene and other 2-dimensional (2D) materials is also highlighted along with their various structural stabilities. The strategy for its theoretical simulations, leading to the experimental synthesis, could also be helpful for the exploration of many newer 2D materials.

Abstract
The use of single-crystal substrates as templates for the epitaxial growth of single-crystal overlayers has been a primary principle of materials epitaxy for more than 70 years. Here we report our finding that, though counterintuitive, single-crystal 2D materials can be epitaxially grown on twinned crystals. By establishing a geometric principle to describe 2D materials alignment on high-index surfaces, we show that 2D material islands grown on the two sides of a twin boundary can be well aligned. To validate this prediction, wafer-scale Cu foils with abundant twin boundaries were synthesized, and on the surfaces of these polycrystalline Cu foils, we have successfully grown wafer-scale single-crystal graphene and hexagonal boron nitride films. In addition, to greatly increasing the availability of large area high-quality 2D single crystals, our discovery also extends the fundamental understanding of materials epitaxy.

Abstract
Although one of the most mature battery technologies, lithium-ion batteries still have many aspects that have not reached the desired requirements, such as energy density, current density, safety, environmental compatibility, and price. To solve these problems, all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLB) based on lithium metal anodes with high energy density and safety have been proposed and become a research hotpot in recent years. Due to the advanced electrochemical properties of 2D materials (2DM), they have been applied to mitigate some of the current problems of ASSLBs, such as high interface impedance and low electrolyte ionic conductivity. In this work, the background and fabrication method of 2DMs are reviewed initially. The improvement strategies of 2DMs are categorized based on their application in the three main components of ASSLBs: The anode, cathode, and electrolyte. Finally, to elucidate the mechanisms of 2DMs in ASSLBs, the role of in situ characterization, synchrotron X-ray techniques, and other advanced characterization are discussed.

Abstract
There exists a vast expanse of data in the literature which can be harnessed for accelerated design and discovery of advanced materials for various applications of importance ─ for example, desalination of seawater. Here, we develop a machine learning (ML) model, training it with ∼260 molecular dynamics (MD) computation results, to predict the desalination performance of 2D membranes that exist in the literature. The desalination performance variables of water flux and salt rejection rates are correlated to 49 material features related to the chemistry of the pores and the membranes along with applied pressure, salt concentration, partial charges on the atoms, geometry of the pore, the mechanical properties of the membranes, and the properties of water for the water model used. We used the ML model to screen 3814 structurally optimized 2D materials for maximum water flux and salt rejection rates from the literature. We found some candidates that perform ∼4 times better than the more popularly known 2D materials such as graphene and MoS2. This result is verified using data obtained from MD simulations performed on several representative 2D membranes for different classes. Such validated statistical frameworks using literature data can be very useful in guiding experiments in the field of functional materials for varied applications.

Abstract
New insoluble layered zirconium phosphate carboxyaminophosphonates (ZPs), with the general formula Zr2(PO4)H5[(O3PCH2)2N(CH2)nCOO]2·mH2O (n = 3, 4, and 5), have been prepared and characterized. The crystal structure for n = 3 and 4 samples was determined ab initio from X-ray powder diffraction data. The structure for n = 3 was monoclinic in space group C2/c with the following unit cell parameters: a = 34.346(1) Å, b = 8.4930(2) Å, c = 9.0401(2) Å, and β = 97.15(1)°. The structure for n = 4 was triclinic in space group P1̅ with the following unit cell parameters: a = 17.9803(9) Å, b = 8.6066(4) Å, c = 9.0478(3) Å, α = 90.466(3)°, β = 94.910(4)°, and γ = 99.552(4)°. The two structures had the same connectivity as Zr phosphate glycine diphosphonate (n = 1), as previously reported. By intercalation of short amines, these layered compounds were exfoliated in single lamella or packets of a few lamellae, which formed colloidal dispersions in water. After a thorough characterization, the dispersed lamellae were functionalized with Ag nanoparticles, which were grown in situ on the surface of exfoliated lamellae. Finally, their antimicrobial activity was tested on several Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. All of these systems were found to be active against the four pathogens most frequently isolated from orthopedic prosthetic infections and often causative of nosocomial infections. Interestingly, they were found to express powerful inhibitory activity even against bacterial strains exhibiting a relevant profile of antibiotic resistance such as Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 700699.

Atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) metal oxides exhibit unique optical, electrical, magnetic, and chemical properties, rendering them a bright application prospect in high-performance smart devices. Given the large variety of both layered and non-layered 2D metal oxides, the controllable synthesis is the critical prerequisite for enabling the exploration of their great potentials. In this review, recent progress in the synthesis of 2D metal oxides is summarized and categorized. Particularly, a brief overview of categories and crystal structures of 2D metal oxides is firstly introduced, followed by a critical discussion of various synthesis methods regarding the growth mechanisms, advantages, and limitations. Finally, the existing challenges are presented to provide possible future research directions regarding the synthesis of 2D metal oxides. This work can provide useful guidance on developing innovative approaches for producing both 2D layered and non-layered nanostructures and assist with the acceleration of the research of 2D metal oxides.

Abstract
Herein, state-of-the-art research advances in South Korea regarding the development of chemical sensing materials and fully integrated Internet of Things (IoT) sensing platforms were comprehensively reviewed for verifying the applicability of such sensing systems in point-of-care testing (POCT). Various organic/inorganic nanomaterials were synthesized and characterized to understand their fundamental chemical sensing mechanisms upon exposure to target analytes. Moreover, the applicability of nanomaterials integrated with IoT-based signal transducers for the real-time and on-site analysis of chemical species was verified. In this review, we focused on the development of noble nanostructures and signal transduction techniques for use in IoT sensing platforms, and based on their applications, such systems were classified into gas sensors, ion sensors, and biosensors. A future perspective for the development of chemical sensors was discussed for application to next-generation POCT systems that facilitate rapid and multiplexed screening of various analytes.

Abstract
In this work, we unravel a facile solution-based method to prepare chromium germanium telluride, Cr2Ge2Te6 (CGT) quantum dots (QDs), which present strong light-matter interactions with monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) in their CGT/TMD vertical heterostructures. The heterostructures' optoelectronic properties were controlled by simply varying the QDs thickness. We observed contrasting emissions from monolayer TMDs in the various CGT QDs-TMDs (of WS2, WSe2 and MoS2) heterostructures depending on the density of QDs in the heterostructures. Low-density CGT QDs-based heterostructures demonstrated a reduced light emission intensity compared to the isolated monolayers, but with an increased trion ratio due to the electron doping effect of CGT QDs. In contrast, high-density CGT QDs-based heterostructures showed an increased light emission intensity and a broadened, red-shifted emission peak in comparison to the bare TMDs, attributed to the enhanced optical absorption in the heterostructures arising from the assembled CGT QDs. Finally, proof-of-concept field-effect transistor (FET) and photodetector devices based on the created CGT QDs-WS2 heterostructures were designed, which showed an enhanced optoelectronic performance.

Abstract
We synthesized ternary composition chalcogenide Ta2NiSe7, a quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) material with excellent crystallinity. To utilize the excellent electrical conductivity property of Ta2NiSe7, the breakdown current density (JBD) according to thickness change through mechanical exfoliation was measured. It was confirmed that as the thickness decreased, the maximum breakdown voltage (VBD) increased, and at 18 nm thickness, 35 MA cm-2 of JBD was measured, which was 35 times higher than that of copper, which is commonly used as an interconnect material. By optimization of the exfoliation process, it is expected that through a theoretical model fitting, the JBD can be increased to about 356 MA cm-2. It is expected that the low-dimensional materials with ternary compositions proposed through this experiment can be used as candidates for current-carrying materials that are required for the miniaturization of various electronic devices.
