Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) heterostructures have attracted a lot of attention due to their rich material diversity and stack geometry, precise controllability of structure and properties, and potential practical applications. These heterostructures not only overcome the inherent limitations of individual materials but also enable the realization of new properties through appropriate combinations, establishing a platform to explore new physical and chemical properties at micro-nano-pico scales. In this review, we systematically summarize the latest research progress in the synthesis, modulation, and application of 2D TMD heterostructures. We first introduce the latest techniques for fabricating 2D TMD heterostructures, examining the rationale, mechanisms, advantages, and disadvantages of each strategy. Furthermore, we emphasize the importance of characteristic modulation in 2D TMD heterostructures and discuss some approaches to achieve novel functionalities. Then, we summarize the representative applications of 2D TMD heterostructures. Finally, we highlight the challenges and future perspectives in the synthesis and device fabrication of 2D TMD heterostructures and provide some feasible solutions.

Abstract
ConspectusTwo-dimensional materials have been a focus of study for decades, resulting in the development of a library of nanosheets made by a variety of methods. However, many of these atomically thin materials are exfoliated from van der Waals (vdW) compounds, which inherently have weaker bonding between layers in the bulk crystal. Even though there are diverse properties and structures within this class of compounds, it would behoove the community to look beyond these compounds toward the exfoliation of non-vdW compounds as well. A particular class of non-vdW compounds that may be amenable to exfoliation are the ionically bonded layered materials, which are structurally similar to vdW compounds but have alkali ions intercalated between the layers. Although initially they may have been more difficult to exfoliate due to a lack of methodology beyond mechanical exfoliation, many synthesis techniques have been developed that have been used successfully in exfoliating non-vdW materials. In fact, as we will show, in some cases it has even proven to be advantageous to start the exfoliation from a non-vdW compound.The method we will highlight here is chemical exfoliation, which has developed significantly and is better understood mechanistically compared to when it was first conceived. Encompassing many methods, such as acid/base reactions, solvent reactions, and oxidative extractions, chemical exfoliation can be tailored to the delamination of non-vdW materials, which opens up many more possibilities of compounds to study. In addition, beginning with intercalated analogues of vdW materials can even lead to more consistent and higher quality results, overcoming some challenges associated with chemical exfoliation in general. To exemplify this, we will discuss our group's work on the synthesis of a 1T'-WS2 monolayer ink. By starting with K0.5WS2, the exfoliated 1T'-WS2 nanosheets obtained were larger and more uniform in thickness than those from previous syntheses beginning with vdW materials. The crystallinity of the nanosheets was high enough that films made from this ink were superconducting. We will also show how soft chemical methods can be used to make new phases from existing compounds, such as HxCrS2 from NaCrS2. This material was found to have alternating amorphous and crystalline layers. Its biphasic structure improved the material's performance as a battery electrode, enabling reversible Cr redox and faster Na-ion diffusion. From these and other examples, we will see how chemical exfoliation of non-vdW materials compares to other methods, as well as how this technique can be further extended to known compounds that can be deintercalated electrochemically and to quasi-one-dimensional crystals.

Abstract
The Open Databases Integration for Materials Design (OPTIMADE) application programming interface (API) empowers users with holistic access to a growing federation of databases, enhancing the accessibility and discoverability of materials and chemical data. Since the first release of the OPTIMADE specification (v1.0), the API has undergone significant development, leading to the v1.2 release, and has underpinned multiple scientific studies. In this work, we highlight the latest features of the API format, accompanying software tools, and provide an update on the implementation of OPTIMADE in contributing materials databases. We end by providing several use cases that demonstrate the utility of the OPTIMADE API in materials research that continue to drive its ongoing development.

Abstract
One-dimensional materials have gained much attention in the last decades: from carbon nanotubes to ultrathin nanowires to few-atom atomic chains, these can all display unique electronic properties and great potential for next-generation applications. Exfoliable bulk materials could naturally provide a source for one-dimensional wires with a well-defined structure and electronics. Here, we explore a database of one-dimensional materials that could be exfoliated from experimentally known three-dimensional van der Waals compounds, searching for metallic wires that are resilient to Peierls distortions and could act as vias or interconnects for future downscaled electronic devices. As the one-dimensional nature makes these wires particularly susceptible to dynamical instabilities, we carefully characterize vibrational properties to identify stable phases and characterize electronic and dynamical properties. Our search discovers several stable wires; notably, we identify what could be the thinnest possible exfoliable metallic wire, CuC2, coming a step closer to the ultimate limit in material downscaling.

Abstract
Machine learning holds significant research potential in the field of nanotechnology, enabling nanomaterial structure and property predictions, facilitating materials design and discovery, and reducing the need for time-consuming and labor-intensive experiments and simulations. In contrast to their achiral counterparts, the application of machine learning for chiral nanomaterials is still in its infancy, with a limited number of publications to date. This is despite the great potential of machine learning to advance the development of new sustainable chiral materials with high values of optical activity, circularly polarized luminescence, and enantioselectivity, as well as for the analysis of structural chirality by electron microscopy. In this review, an analysis of machine learning methods used for studying achiral nanomaterials is provided, subsequently offering guidance on adapting and extending this work to chiral nanomaterials. An overview of chiral nanomaterials within the framework of synthesis-structure-property-application relationships is presented and insights on how to leverage machine learning for the study of these highly complex relationships are provided. Some key recent publications are reviewed and discussed on the application of machine learning for chiral nanomaterials. Finally, the review captures the key achievements, ongoing challenges, and the prospective outlook for this very important research field.

Abstract
In recent years, two-dimensional (2D) layer materials have shown great potential in the field of cancer diagnosis and treatment due to their unique structural, electronic, and chemical properties. These non-spherical materials have attracted increasing attention around the world because of its widely used biological characteristics. The application of 2D layer materials like lamellar graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), and black phosphorus (BPs) and so on have been developed for CT/MRI imaging, serum biosensing, drug targeting delivery, photothermal therapy, and photodynamic therapy. These unique applications for tumor are due to the multi-variable synthesis of 2D materials and the structural characteristics of good ductility different from microsphere. Based on the above considerations, the application of 2D materials in cancer is mainly carried out in the following three aspects: 1) In terms of accurate and rapid screening of tumor patients, we will focus on the enrichment of serum markers and sensitive signal transformation of 2D materials; 2) The progress of 2D nanomaterials in tumor MRI and CT imaging was described by comparing the performance of traditional contrast agents; 3) In the most important aspect, we will focus on the progress of 2D materials in the field of precision drug delivery and collaborative therapy, such as photothermal ablation, sonodynamic therapy, chemokinetic therapy, etc. In summary, this review provides a comprehensive overview of the advances in the application of 2D layer materials for tumor diagnosis and treatment, and emphasizes the performance difference between 2D materials and other types of nanoparticles (mainly spherical). With further research and development, these multifunctional layer materials hold great promise in the prospects, and challenges of 2D materials development are discussed.
