Abstract
Electronic devices employing two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) layers as semiconducting channels often exhibit limited performance (e.g., low carrier mobility), in part, due to their high contact resistances caused by interfacing non-vdW three-dimensional (3D) metal electrodes. Herein, we report that this intrinsic contact issue can be efficiently mitigated by forming the 2D/2D in-plane junctions of 2D semiconductor channels seamlessly interfaced with 2D metal electrodes. For this, we demonstrated the selectively patterned conversion of semiconducting 2D PtSe2 (channels) to metallic 2D PtTe2 (electrodes) layers by employing a wafer-scale low-temperature chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process. We investigated a variety of field-effect transistors (FETs) employing wafer-scale CVD-2D PtSe2/2D PtTe2 heterolayers and identified that silicon dioxide (SiO2) top-gated FETs exhibited an extremely high hole mobility of ∼120 cm2 V-1 s-1 at room temperature, significantly surpassing performances with previous wafer-scale 2D PtSe2-based FETs. The low-temperature nature of the CVD method further allowed for the direct fabrication of wafer-scale arrays of 2D PtSe2/2D PtTe2 heterolayers on polyamide (PI) substrates, which intrinsically displayed optical pulse-induced artificial synaptic behaviors. This study is believed to vastly broaden the applicability of 2D TMD layers for next-generation, high-performance electronic devices with unconventional functionalities.

Abstract
PtSe2 has asserted its key role among the emerging 2D transition metal dichalcogenides, however, its simplified growth process with controlled number of layers, high crystalline quality, and on inexpensive substrates is still challenging. Here, we report the synthesis details of PtSe2 layers on soda lime glass substrates by selenization of predeposited Pt layers using the thermally assisted conversion method at atmospheric pressure. PtSe2 syntheses are confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Raman analysis. The layers were further investigated with transmission electron microscopy and optical ellipsometry, revealing the thickness and its dependence on the metal precursor sputtering time. Finally, the integration of PtSe2 as transparent conductive layers in polymer-dispersed liquid crystal structures operating as near-infrared light shutters is demonstrated and device performance is discussed. The proposed simple and inexpensive synthesis approach opens up new directions toward PtSe2 potential technological applications, including ITO-free optoelectronics.

Abstract
In recent years, kirigami techniques have inspired the design of graphene-based nanodevices with exceptional stretchability and ductility. Based on an I-shaped cutting pattern, here we propose a graphene kirigami that exhibits remarkable stretchability and ductility in two independent planar directions along with negative Poisson's ratios. The deformation mechanism underlying the high stretchability of the structure is the flipping and rotation of its cutting ligaments during elongation. Molecular dynamics simulations show that the yield and fracture strains of graphene kirigami can be enhanced by factors of 6 and 10 in the two planar directions. In addition, the mechanical properties of the graphene kirigami can be tuned by altering the cutting geometric parameters as well as incorporating distinct cutting patterns in series. We develop a numerical algorithm to predict the stress-strain response of the series-connected graphene kirigami, and verify its accuracy using appropriate simulations. On this basis, the stress-strain response of the series-connected graphene kirigami can be tuned by altering its geometric parameters and the number of building blocks. This graphene kirigami could be applied to the design and development of next-generation flexible electronics such as stretchable electrodes and strain sensors.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) layers are highly promising as field-effect transistor (FET) channels in the atomic-scale limit. However, accomplishing this superiority in scaled-up FETs remains challenging due to their van der Waals (vdW) bonding nature with respect to conventional metal electrodes. Herein, we report a scalable approach to fabricate centimeter-scale all-2D FET arrays of platinum diselenide (PtSe2) with in-plane platinum ditelluride (PtTe2) edge contacts, mitigating the aforementioned challenges. We realized a reversible transition between semiconducting PtSe2 and metallic PtTe2 via a low-temperature anion exchange reaction compatible with the back-end-of-line (BEOL) processes. All-2D PtSe2 FETs seamlessly edge-contacted with transited metallic PtTe2 exhibited significant performance improvements compared to those with surface-contacted gold electrodes, e.g., an increase of carrier mobility and on/off ratio by over an order of magnitude, achieving a maximum hole mobility of ∼50.30 cm2 V-1 s-1 at room temperature. This study opens up new opportunities toward atomically thin 2D-TMD-based circuitries with extraordinary functionalities.

Abstract
Tin monosulfide (SnS) is a promising piezoelectric material with an intrinsically layered structure, making it attractive for self-powered wearable and stretchable devices. However, for practical application purposes, it is essential to improve the output and manufacturing compatibility of SnS-based piezoelectric devices by exploring their large-area synthesis principle. In this study, we report the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of centimeter-scale two-dimensional (2D) SnS layers at temperatures as low as 200 °C, allowing compatibility with processing a range of polymeric substrates. The intrinsic piezoelectricity of 2D SnS layers directly grown on polyamides (PIs) was confirmed by piezoelectric force microscopy (PFM) phase maps and force-current corroborative measurements. Furthermore, the structural robustness of the centimeter-scale 2D SnS layers/PIs allowed for engraving complicated kirigami patterns on them. The kirigami-patterned 2D SnS layer devices exhibited intriguing strain-tolerant piezoelectricity, which was employed in detecting human body motions and generating photocurrents irrespective of strain rate variations. These results establish the great promise of 2D SnS layers for practically relevant large-scale device technologies with coupled electrical and mechanical properties.

Abstract
2D materials with dangling-bond-free surfaces and atomically thin layers have been shown to be capable of being incorporated into flexible electronic devices. The electronic and optical properties of 2D materials can be tuned or controlled in other ways by using the intriguing strain engineering method. The latest and encouraging techniques in regard to creating flexible 2D nanoelectronics are condensed in this review. These techniques have the potential to be used in a wider range of applications in the near and long term. It is possible to use ultrathin 2D materials (graphene, BP, WTe2 , VSe2 etc.) and 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (2D TMDs) in order to enable the electrical behavior of the devices to be studied. A category of materials is produced on smaller scales by exfoliating bulk materials, whereas chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and epitaxial growth are employed on larger scales. This overview highlights two distinct requirements, which include from a single semiconductor or with van der Waals heterostructures of various nanomaterials. They include where strain must be avoided and where it is required, such as solutions to produce strain-insensitive devices, and such as pressure-sensitive outcomes, respectively. Finally, points-of-view about the current difficulties and possibilities in regard to using 2D materials in flexible electronics are provided.

Abstract
The application of 2D materials-based flexible electronics in wearable scenarios is limited due to performance degradation under strain fields. In contrast to its negative role in existing transistors or sensors, herein, we discover a positive effect of strain to the ammonia detection in 2D PtSe2. Linear modulation of sensitivity is achieved in flexible 2D PtSe2 sensors via a customized probe station with an in situ strain loading apparatus. For trace ammonia absorption, a 300% enhancement in room-temperature sensitivity (31.67% ppm-1) and an ultralow limit of detection (50 ppb) are observed under 1/4 mm-1 curvature strain. We identify three types of strain-sensitive adsorption sites in layered PtSe2 and pinpoint that basal-plane lattice distortion contributes to better sensing performance resulting from reduced absorption energy and larger charge transfer density. Furthermore, we demonstrate state-of-the-art 2D PtSe2-based wireless wearable integrated circuits, which allow real-time gas sensing data acquisition, processing, and transmission through a Bluetooth module to user terminals. The circuits exhibit a wide detection range with a maximum sensitivity value of 0.026 V·ppm-1 and a low energy consumption below 2 mW.

Abstract
Realizing the neurological information processing by analyzing the complex data transferring behavior of populations and individual neurons is one of the fast-growing fields of neuroscience and bioelectronic technologies. This field is anticipated to cover a wide range of advanced applications, including neural dynamic monitoring, understanding the neurological disorders, human brain-machine communications and even ambitious mind-controlled prosthetic implant systems. To fulfill the requirements of high spatial and temporal resolution recording of neural activities, electrical, optical and biosensing technologies are combined to develop multifunctional bioelectronic and neuro-signal probes. Advanced two-dimensional (2D) layered materials such as graphene, graphene oxide, transition metal dichalcogenides and MXenes with their atomic-layer thickness and multifunctional capabilities show bio-stimulation and multiple sensing properties. These characteristics are beneficial factors for development of ultrathin-film electrodes for flexible neural interfacing with minimum invasive chronic interfaces to the brain cells and cortex. The combination of incredible properties of 2D nanostructure places them in a unique position, as the main materials of choice, for multifunctional reception of neural activities. The current review highlights the recent achievements in 2D-based bioelectronic systems for monitoring of biophysiological indicators and biosignals at neural interfaces.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors are promising for next-generation electronics that are lightweight, flexible, and stretchable. Achieving stretchability with suppressed crack formation, however, is still difficult without introducing lithographically etched micropatterns, which significantly reduces active device areas. Herein, we report a solution-based hierarchical structuring to create stretchable semiconducting films that are continuous over wafer-scale areas via self-assembly of two-dimensional nanosheets. Electrochemically exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets with large lateral sizes (∼1 μm) are first assembled into a uniform film on a prestrained thermoplastic substrate, followed by strain relief of the substrate to create nanoscale wrinkles. Subsequent strain-relief cycles with the presence of soluble polymer films produce hierarchical wrinkles with multigenerational structures. Stretchable MoS2 films are then realized by curing an elastomer directly on the wrinkled surface and dissolving the thermoplastic. Three-generation hierarchical MoS2 wrinkles are resistant to cracking up to nearly 100% substrate stretching and achieve drastically enhanced photoresponsivity compared to the flat counterpart over the visible and NIR regimes, while the flat MoS2 film is beneficial in creating strain sensors because of its strain-dependent electrical response.

Abstract
Various near-atom-thickness two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) crystals with unparalleled electromechanical properties have been explored for transformative devices. Currently, the availability of 2D vdW crystals is rather limited in nature as they are only obtained from certain mother crystals with intrinsically possessed layered crystallinity and anisotropic molecular bonding. Recent efforts to transform conventionally non-vdW three-dimensional (3D) crystals into ultrathin 2D-like structures have seen rapid developments to explore device building blocks of unique form factors. Herein, we explore a "peel-and-stick" approach, where a nonlayered 3D platinum sulfide (PtS) crystal, traditionally known as a cooperate mineral material, is transformed into a freestanding 2D-like membrane for electromechanical applications. The ultrathin (∼10 nm) 3D PtS films grown on large-area (>cm2) silicon dioxide/silicon (SiO2/Si) wafers are precisely "peeled" inside water retaining desired geometries via a capillary-force-driven surface wettability control. Subsequently, they are "sticked" on strain-engineered patterned substrates presenting prominent semiconducting properties, i.e., p-type transport with an optical band gap of ∼1.24 eV. A variety of mechanically deformable strain-invariant electronic devices have been demonstrated by this peel-and-stick method, including biaxially stretchable photodetectors and respiratory sensing face masks. This study offers new opportunities of 2D-like nonlayered semiconducting crystals for emerging mechanically reconfigurable and stretchable device technologies.

Abstract
Semiconducting MoS2 layers offer the electrons, reducing conjugated Au(I) to Au atoms, and sebsequently serve as desirable substrates for supporting the interfacial growths of gold nanostructures. Au-covering MoS2 heterostructures perform morphology-varied optical characteristics, and the surface engineering of MoS2 involved by Hg2+ ions results in the differential growths of nanostructures and morphological diversities. Naked-eye colorimetric responses to mercury ions, with a low limit of detection of 1.27 nM, are achieved based on the in situ grown heterostructures.

Abstract
As a new member in two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) family, platinum diselenium (PtSe2) has many excellent properties, such as the layer-dependent band gap, high carrier mobility, high photoelectrical coupling, broadband response, etc, thus it shows good promising application in room temperature photodetectors, broadband photodetectors, transistors and other fields. Furthermore, compared with other TMDCs, PtSe2is chemical inert in ambient, showing nano-devices potential with higher performance and stability. However, up to now, the synthesis and its device applications are in its early stage. This review systematically summarized the state of the art of PtSe2from its structure, property, synthesis and potential application. Finally, the current challenges and future perspectives are outlined for the applications of 2D PtSe2.

Abstract
A wavelength sensor as a representative optoelectronic device plays an important role in many fields including visible light communication, medical diagnosis, and image recognition. In this study, a wavelength-sensitive detector with a new operation mechanism was reported. The as-proposed wavelength sensor which is composed of two parallel PtSe2/thin Si Schottky junction photodetectors is capable of distinguishing wavelength in the range from ultraviolet to near infrared (UV-NIR) light (265 to 1050 nm), in that the relationship between the photocurrent ratio of both photodetectors and incident wavelength can be numerically described by a monotonic function. The unique operation mechanism of the thin Si based wavelength sensor was unveiled by theoretical simulation based on Synopsys Sentaurus Technology Computer Aided Design (TCAD). Remarkably, the wavelength sensor has an average absolute error of ±4.05 nm and an average relative error less than ±0.56%, which are much better than previously reported devices. What is more, extensive analysis was performed to reveal how and to what extent the working temperature and incident light intensity, and the thickness of the PtSe2 layer will influence the performance of the wavelength sensor.

Abstract
Wearable bioelectronics with emphasis on the research and development of advanced person-oriented biomedical devices have attracted immense interest in the past decade. Scientists and clinicians find it essential to utilize skin-worn smart tattoos for on-demand and ambulatory monitoring of an individual's vital signs. Here, we report on the development of ultrathin platinum-based two-dimensional dichalcogenide (Pt-TMDs)-based electronic tattoos as advanced building blocks of future wearable bioelectronics. We made these ultrathin electronic tattoos out of large-scale synthesized platinum diselenide (PtSe2) and platinum ditelluride (PtTe2) layered materials and used them for monitoring human physiological vital signs, such as the electrical activity of the heart and the brain, muscle contractions, eye movements, and temperature. We show that both materials can be used for these applications; yet, PtTe2 was found to be the most suitable choice due to its metallic structure. In terms of sheet resistance, skin contact, and electrochemical impedance, PtTe2 outperforms state-of-the-art gold and graphene electronic tattoos and performs on par with medical-grade Ag/AgCl gel electrodes. The PtTe2 tattoos show 4 times lower impedance and almost 100 times lower sheet resistance compared to monolayer graphene tattoos. One of the possible prompt implications of this work is perhaps in the development of advanced human-machine interfaces. To display the application, we built a multi-tattoo system that can easily distinguish eye movement and identify the direction of an individual's sight.

Abstract
Achieving a high-quality metal contact on two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors still remains a major challenge due to the strong Fermi level pinning and the absence of an effective doping method. Here, we demonstrate high performance "all-PtSe2" field-effect transistors (FETs) completely free from those issues, enabled by the vertical integration of a metallic thick PtSe2 source/drain onto the semiconducting ultrathin PtSe2 channel. Owing to its inherent thickness-dependent semiconductor-to-metal phase transition, the transferred metallic PtSe2 transforms the underlying semiconducting PtSe2 into metal at the junction. Therefore, a fully metallized source/drain and semiconducting channel could be realized within the same PtSe2 platform. The ultrathin PtSe2 FETs with PtSe2 vdW contact exhibits excellent gate tunability, superior mobility, and high ON current accompanied by one order lower contact resistance compared to conventional Ti/Au contact FETs. Our work provides a new device paradigm with a low resistance PtSe2 vdW contact which can overcome a fundamental bottleneck in 2D nanoelectronics.

Abstract
Since the first experimental discovery of graphene 16 years ago, many other 2D layered nanomaterials have been reported. However, the majority of 2D nanostructures suffer from relatively complicated fabrication processes that have bottlenecked their development and their uptake by industry for practical applications. Here, the recent progress in sensing, photonic, and (opto-)electronic applications of PtSe2 , a 2D layered material that is likely to be used in industries benefiting from its high air-stability and semiconductor-technology-compatible fabrication methods, is reviewed. The advantages and disadvantages of a range of synthesis methods for PtSe2 are initially compared, followed by a discussion of its outstanding properties, and industrial and commercial advantages. Research focused on the broadband nonlinear photonic properties of PtSe2 , as well as reports of its use as a saturable absorber in ultrafast lasers, are then reviewed. Additionally, the advances that have been achieved in a range of PtSe2 -based field-effect transistors, photodetectors, and sensors are summarized. Finally, a conclusion on these results along with the outlook for the future is presented.

Abstract
Layered materials that do not form a covalent bond in a vertical direction can be prepared in a few atoms to one atom thickness without dangling bonds. This distinctive characteristic of limiting thickness around the sub-nanometer level allowed scientists to explore various physical phenomena in the quantum realm. In addition to the contribution to fundamental science, various applications were proposed. Representatively, they were suggested as a promising material for future electronics. This is because (i) the dangling-bond-free nature inhibits surface scattering, thus carrier mobility can be maintained at sub-nanometer range; (ii) the ultrathin nature allows the short-channel effect to be overcome. In order to establish fundamental discoveries and utilize them in practical applications, appropriate preparation methods are required. On the other hand, adjusting properties to fit the desired application properly is another critical issue. Hence, in this review, we first describe the preparation method of layered materials. Proper growth techniques for target applications and the growth of emerging materials at the beginning stage will be extensively discussed. In addition, we suggest interlayer engineering via intercalation as a method for the development of artificial crystal. Since infinite combinations of the host-intercalant combination are possible, it is expected to expand the material system from the current compound system. Finally, inevitable factors that layered materials must face to be used as electronic applications will be introduced with possible solutions. Emerging electronic devices realized by layered materials are also discussed.

Abstract
2D PtTe2 layers, a relatively new class of 2D crystals, have unique band structure and remarkably high electrical conductivity promising for emergent opto-electronics. This intrinsic superiority can be further leveraged toward practical device applications by merging them with mature 3D semiconductors, which has remained largely unexplored. Herein, we explored 2D/3D heterojunction devices by directly growing large-area (>cm2) 2D PtTe2 layers on Si wafers using a low-temperature CVD method and unveiled their superior opto-electrical characteristics. The devices exhibited excellent Schottky transport characteristics essential for high-performance photovoltaics and photodetection, i.e., well-balanced combination of high photodetectivity (>1013 Jones), small photo-responsiveness time (∼1 μs), high current rectification ratio (>105), and water super-hydrophobicity driven photovoltaic improvement (>300%). These performances were identified to be superior to those of previously explored 2D/3D or 2D layer-based devices with much smaller junction areas, and their underlying principles were confirmed by DFT calculations.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) with vertically aligned (VA) layers exhibits significantly enriched surface-exposed edge sites with an abundance of dangling bonds owing to its intrinsic crystallographic anisotropy. Such structural variation renders the material with exceptionally high chemical reactivity and chemisorption ability, making it particularly attractive for high-performance electrochemical sensing. This superior property can be further promoted as far as it is integrated on mechanically stretchable substrates well retaining its surface-exposed defective edges, projecting opportunities for a wide range of applications utilizing its structural uniqueness and mechanical flexibility. In this work, we explored VA-2D MoS2 layers configured in laterally stretchable forms for multifunctional nitrogen dioxide (NO2) gas sensors. Large-area (>cm2) VA-2D MoS2 layers grown by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method were directly integrated onto a variety of flexible substrates with serpentine patterns judiciously designed to accommodate a large degree of tensile strain. These uniquely structured VA-2D MoS2 layers were demonstrated to be highly sensitive to NO2 gas of controlled concentration preserving their intrinsic structural and chemical integrity, e.g., significant current response ratios of ∼160-380% upon the introduction of NO2 at a level of 5-30 ppm. Remarkably, they exhibited such a high sensitivity even under lateral stretching up to 40% strain, significantly outperforming previously reported 2D MoS2 layer-based NO2 gas sensors of any structural forms. Underlying principles for the experimentally observed superiority were theoretically unveiled by density functional theory (DFT) calculation and finite element method (FEM) analysis. The intrinsic high sensitivity and large stretchability of VA-2D MoS2 layers confirmed in this study are believed to be applicable in sensing diverse gas species, greatly broadening their versatility in stretchable and wearable technologies.

Abstract
We employ a combination of scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and scanning tunnelling spectroscopy (STS) to investigate the properties of layered PtS2, synthesised via thermally assisted conversion (TAC) of a metallic Pt thin film. STM measurements reveal the 1T crystal structure of PtS2, and the lattice constant is determined to be 3.58 ± 0.03 Å. STS allowed the electronic structure of individual PtS2 crystallites to be directly probed and a bandgap of ∼1.03 eV was determined for a 3.8 nm thick flake at liquid nitrogen temperature. These findings substantially expand understanding of the atomic and electronic structure of PtS2 and indicate that STM is a powerful tool capable of locally probing non-uniform polycrystalline films, such as those produced by TAC. Prior to STM/STS measurements the quality of synthesised TAC PtS2 was analysed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Raman spectroscopy. These results are of relevance to applications-focussed studies centred on PtS2 and may inform future efforts to optimise the synthesis conditions for thin film PtS2. Semiconducting thin-film polycrystalline PtS2 is characterised by atomically resolved scanning tunnelling microscopy and spectroscopy.![]()

Abstract
The frequency shifts and lattice dynamics to unveil the vibrational properties of platinum diselenide (PtSe2) are investigated using pressure-dependent polarized Raman scattering at room temperature up to 25 GPa. The two phonon modes Eg and A1g display similar hardening trends; both the Raman peak positions and full widths at half-maximum have distinct mutation phenomena under high pressure. Especially, the split Eg mode at 4.3 GPa confirms the change of the lattice symmetry. With the aid of the first-principles calculations, a new pressure stabilization structure C2/m of PtSe2 has been found to be in good agreement with experiments. The band structures calculations reveal that the new phase is a novel type-I Dirac semimetal. The results demonstrate that the pressure-dependent Raman spectra combined with theoretical predictions may open a new window for searching and controlling the phase structure and Dirac cones of two-dimensional materials.

Abstract
Ionic conductors are normally prepared from water-based materials in the solid form and feature a combination of intrinsic transparency and stretchability. The sensitivity toward humidity inevitably leads to dehydration or deliquescence issues, which will limit the long-term use of ionic conductors. Here, a novel ionic conductor based on natural bacterial cellulose (BC) and polymerizable deep eutectic solvents (PDESs) is developed for addressing the abovementioned drawbacks. The superstrong three-dimensional nanofiber network and strong interfacial interaction endow the BC-PDES ionic conductor with significantly enhanced mechanical properties (tensile strength of 8 × 105 Pa and compressive strength of 6.68 × 106 Pa). Furthermore, compared to deliquescent PDESs, BC-PDES composites showed obvious mechanical stability, which maintain good mechanical properties even when exposed to high humidity for 120 days. These materials were demonstrated to possess multiple sensitivity to external stimulus, such as strain, pressure, bend, and temperature. Thus, they can easily serve as supersensitive sensors to recognize physical activity of humans such as limb movements, throat vibrations, and handwriting. Moreover, the BC-PDES ionic conductors can be used in flexible, patterned electroluminescent devices. This work provides an efficient strategy for making cellulose-based sustainable and functional ionic conductors which have broad application in artificial flexible electronics and other products.

Abstract
Noble-metal chalcogenides, dichalcogenides, and phosphochalcogenides are an emerging class of two-dimensional materials. Quantum confinement (number of layers) and defect engineering enables their properties to be tuned over a broad range, including metal-to-semiconductor transitions, magnetic ordering, and topological surface states. They possess various polytypes, often of similar formation energy, which can be accessed by selective synthesis approaches. They excel in mechanical, optical, and chemical sensing applications, and feature long-term air and moisture stability. In this Minireview, we summarize the recent progress in the field of noble-metal chalcogenides and phosphochalcogenides and highlight the structural complexity and its impact on applications.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) layers have gained increasing attention for a variety of emerging electrical, thermal, and optical applications. Recently developed metallic 2D TMD layers have been projected to exhibit unique attributes unattainable in their semiconducting counterparts; e.g., much higher electrical and thermal conductivities coupled with mechanical flexibility. In this work, we explored 2D platinum ditelluride (2D PtTe2) layers - a relatively new class of metallic 2D TMDs - by studying their previously unexplored electro-thermal properties for unconventional window applications. We prepared wafer-scale 2D PtTe2 layer-coated optically transparent and mechanically flexible willow glasses via a thermally-assisted tellurization of Pt films at a low temperature of 400 °C. The 2D PtTe2 layer-coated windows exhibited a thickness-dependent optical transparency and electrical conductivity of >106 S m-1 - higher than most of the previously explored 2D TMDs. Upon the application of electrical bias, these windows displayed a significant increase in temperature driven by Joule heating as confirmed by the infrared (IR) imaging characterization. Such superior electro-thermal conversion efficiencies inherent to 2D PtTe2 layers were utilized to demonstrate various applications, including thermochromic displays and electrically-driven defogging windows accompanying mechanical flexibility. Comparisons of these performances confirm the superiority of the wafer-scale 2D PtTe2 layers over other nanomaterials explored for such applications.

Abstract
We report a novel strategy to assemble wafer-scale two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) layers of well-defined components and orientations. We directly grew a variety of 2D TMD layers on "water-dissoluble" single-crystalline salt wafers and precisely delaminated them inside water in a chemically benign manner. This manufacturing strategy enables the automated integration of vertically aligned 2D TMD layers as well as 2D/2D heterolayers of arbitrary stacking orders on exotic substrates insensitive to their kind and shape. Furthermore, the original salt wafers can be recycled for additional growths, confirming high process sustainability and scalability. The generality and versatility of this approach have been demonstrated by developing proof-of-concept "all 2D" devices for diverse yet unconventional applications. This study is believed to shed a light on leveraging opportunities of 2D TMD layers toward achieving large-area mechanically reconfigurable devices of various form factors at the industrially demanded scale.

Abstract
Advanced kirigami/origami provides an automated technique for modulating the mechanical, electrical, magnetic and optical properties of existing materials, with remarkable flexibility, diversity, functionality, generality, and reconfigurability. In this paper, we review the latest progress in kirigami/origami on the microscale/nanoscale as a new platform for advanced 3D microfabrication/nanofabrication. Various stimuli of kirigami/origami, including capillary forces, residual stress, mechanical stress, responsive forces, and focussed-ion-beam irradiation-induced stress, are introduced in the microscale/nanoscale region. These stimuli enable direct 2D-to-3D transformations through folding, bending, and twisting of microstructures/nanostructures, with which the occupied spatial volume can vary by several orders of magnitude compared to the 2D precursors. As an instant and direct method, ion-beam irradiation-based tree-type and close-loop nano-kirigami is highlighted in particular. The progress in microscale/nanoscale kirigami/origami for reshaping the emerging 2D materials, as well as the potential for biological, optical and reconfigurable applications, is briefly discussed. With the unprecedented physical characteristics and applicable functionalities generated by kirigami/origami, a wide range of applications in the fields of optics, physics, biology, chemistry and engineering can be envisioned.

Abstract
Platinum diselenide (PtSe2) is an emerging class of two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) crystals recently gaining substantial interest, owing to its extraordinary properties absent in conventional 2D TMD layers. Most interestingly, it exhibits a thickness-dependent semiconducting-to-metallic transition, i.e., thick 2D PtSe2 layers, which are intrinsically metallic, become semiconducting with their thickness reduced below a certain point. Realizing both semiconducting and metallic phases within identical 2D PtSe2 layers in a spatially well-controlled manner offers unprecedented opportunities toward atomically thin tailored electronic junctions, unattainable with conventional materials. In this study, beyond this thickness-dependent intrinsic semiconducting-to-metallic transition of 2D PtSe2 layers, we demonstrate that controlled plasma irradiation can "externally" achieve such tunable carrier transports. We grew wafer-scale very thin (a few nm) 2D PtSe2 layers by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method and confirmed their intrinsic semiconducting properties. We then irradiated the material with argon (Ar) plasma, which was intended to make it more semiconducting by thickness reduction. Surprisingly, we discovered a reversed transition of semiconducting to metallic, which is opposite to the prediction concerning their intrinsic thickness-dependent carrier transports. Through extensive structural and chemical characterization, we identified that the plasma irradiation introduces a large concentration of near-atomic defects and selenium (Se) vacancies in initially stoichiometric 2D PtSe2 layers. Furthermore, we performed density functional theory (DFT) calculations and clarified that the band-gap energy of such defective 2D PtSe2 layers gradually decreases with increasing defect concentration and dimensions, accompanying a large number of midgap energy states. This corroborative experimental and theoretical study decisively verifies the fundamental mechanism for this externally controlled semiconducting-to-metallic transition in large-area CVD-grown 2D PtSe2 layers, greatly broadening their versatility for futuristic electronics.

Abstract
Platinum ditelluride (PtTe2) is an emerging semimetallic two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) crystal with intriguing band structures and unusual topological properties. Despite much devoted efforts, scalable and controllable synthesis of large-area 2D PtTe2 with well-defined layer orientation has not been established, leaving its projected structure-property relationship largely unclarified. Herein, we report a scalable low-temperature growth of 2D PtTe2 layers on an area greater than a few square centimeters by reacting Pt thin films of controlled thickness with vaporized tellurium at 400 °C. We systematically investigated their thickness-dependent 2D layer orientation as well as its correlated electrical conductivity and surface property. We unveil that 2D PtTe2 layers undergo three distinct growth mode transitions, i.e., horizontally aligned holey layers, continuous layer-by-layer lateral growth, and horizontal-to-vertical layer transition. This growth transition is a consequence of competing thermodynamic and kinetic factors dictated by accumulating internal strain, analogous to the transition of Frank-van der Merwe (FM) to Stranski-Krastanov (SK) growth in epitaxial thin-film models. The exclusive role of the strain on dictating 2D layer orientation has been quantitatively verified by the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) strain mapping analysis. These centimeter-scale 2D PtTe2 layers exhibit layer orientation tunable metallic transports yielding the highest value of ∼1.7 × 106 S/m at a certain critical thickness, supported by a combined verification of density functional theory (DFT) and electrical measurements. Moreover, they show intrinsically high hydrophobicity manifested by the water contact angle (WCA) value up to ∼117°, which is the highest among all reported 2D TMDCs of comparable dimensions and geometries. Accordingly, this study confirms the high material quality of these emerging large-area 2D PtTe2 layers, projecting vast opportunities employing their tunable layer morphology and semimetallic properties from investigations of novel quantum phenomena to applications in electrocatalysis.

Abstract
For the realization of two-dimensional material-based high-performance electronic devices, the formation of a stable, high-quality metal-semiconductor contact is a key factor. Platinum diselenide (PtSe2), a group-10 transition metal dichalcogenide, is a promising candidate owing to its unique property of layer-dependent semiconductor-to-semimetal transition. Here, a scalable and controllable method utilizing an inductively coupled plasma treatment is reported for selectively controlling the thickness of PtSe2 flakes. The PtSe2 transforms from a semimetal to a semiconductor when the thickness decreases below 3 nm. A field-effect transistor is fabricated based on the homogeneous platinum diselenide metal/semiconductor coplanar structure (metallic PtSe2 as source/drain electrodes and semiconductor PtSe2 as a channel), which demonstrates a low contact resistance of 362 Ωμm and carrier mobility of 150 cm2 V-1 s-1, outperforming the previously reported PtSe2-based devices.
