Opening up the possibility of commercializing inexpensive electronic devices based on a variety of 2-D materials

Efficient method for making single-atom-thick, wafer-scale materials opens up opportunities in flexible electronics. Since the 2003 discovery of the single-atom-thick carbon material known as graphene, there has been significant interest in other types of 2-D materials as well. These materials could be stacked together like Lego bricks to form a range of devices with different
