Advanced Fabrication Methods of 2D Materials
摘要
This chapter explores the cutting-edge techniques employed in the synthesis and fabrication of two-dimensional materials, which have garnered significant attention due to their unique physical, chemical, optical, and electronic properties. The chapter delves into both top-down and bottom-up approaches, including mechanical and liquid-phase exfoliation, chemical vapor deposition, atomic layer deposition, and molecular beam epitaxy. It highlights the advancements in precision, scalability, and control over material properties, enabling the production of high-quality 2D materials such as graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). The chapter also discusses emerging methods like van der Waals epitaxy and layer-by-layer assembly, which facilitate the creation of heterostructures with tailored functionalities. Finally, the challenges in achieving uniformity, scalability, and defect control are highlighted while outlining future directions for industrial-scale production.
