Professor Loh Kian Ping‘s group and researchers at NUS Materials Science and Engineering have fabricated a whole new library of atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) materials, christened “ic-2D”, to denote a class of materials based on self-intercalation of native atoms into the gap between the layers of crystals. Schematics above showing the step-by-step growth of a typical Ta7S12 ic-2D material. Read more about their new discovery here.
