# Two-dimensional (2D) materials ## expand\_more We study the structure and electronic and optical properties of low-dimensional, nano-scale systems; examples of such systems include carbon nanotubes, graphene nanoflakes and nanowires. Recent advances in this field include the production of single layers of metal-dichalcogenides (like MoS2, WSe2, etc.) which have semiconducting character, and their combination with graphene (a semi-metal) or hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN, an insulator) layers. ## Recent Publications in 2D Materials Download 5 citations download- [BibTeX](/bibcite/export?pager_style=no_pager&number_of_items=5&sort_field=bibcite_year--desc&taxonomy_filters%5Bfield_hwp_c_topic%5D%5B0%5D%5Btarget_id%5D=14351&&&format=bibtex) - [EndNote X3 XML](/bibcite/export?pager_style=no_pager&number_of_items=5&sort_field=bibcite_year--desc&taxonomy_filters%5Bfield_hwp_c_topic%5D%5B0%5D%5Btarget_id%5D=14351&&&format=endnote8) - [EndNote 7 XML](/bibcite/export?pager_style=no_pager&number_of_items=5&sort_field=bibcite_year--desc&taxonomy_filters%5Bfield_hwp_c_topic%5D%5B0%5D%5Btarget_id%5D=14351&&&format=endnote7) - [Endnote tagged](/bibcite/export?pager_style=no_pager&number_of_items=5&sort_field=bibcite_year--desc&taxonomy_filters%5Bfield_hwp_c_topic%5D%5B0%5D%5Btarget_id%5D=14351&&&format=tagged) - [Marc](/bibcite/export?pager_style=no_pager&number_of_items=5&sort_field=bibcite_year--desc&taxonomy_filters%5Bfield_hwp_c_topic%5D%5B0%5D%5Btarget_id%5D=14351&&&format=marc) - [PubMedId](/bibcite/export?pager_style=no_pager&number_of_items=5&sort_field=bibcite_year--desc&taxonomy_filters%5Bfield_hwp_c_topic%5D%5B0%5D%5Btarget_id%5D=14351&&&format=pubmed_id) - [RIS](/bibcite/export?pager_style=no_pager&number_of_items=5&sort_field=bibcite_year--desc&taxonomy_filters%5Bfield_hwp_c_topic%5D%5B0%5D%5Btarget_id%5D=14351&&&format=ris) ### 2022 Chaves A, Larson D, Kaxiras E, Antonelli A.
