Plumbene: a comprehensive review of theoretical and experimental advances

Plumbene, a two-dimensional (2D) material consisting of a single layer of lead (Pb) atoms in a honeycomb lattice, stands as a pioneering addition to the elemental 2D material family. Here, this comprehensive review encapsulates the theoretical predictions and experimental advancements that underscore its potential. With properties shaped by significant spin-orbit coupling and structural buckling, plumbene offers a playground for phenomena like the quantum spin Hall effect, superconductivity, and topological phase transitions. Despite promising theoretical insights, experimental realization has encountered challenges, primarily due to high reactivity of Pb and the need for precise fabrication conditions. This paper critically examines the electronic, thermal, mechanical, and topological attributes of plumbene, alongside synthesis methods, functionalization techniques, and substrate effects. It further proposes directions for addressing synthesis challenges and integrating plumbene into advanced technologies, particularly in electronic, spintronic, and quantum computing applications. This review aims to bridge the gap between theoretical potential and experimental progress, fostering a deeper understanding of this intriguing material.

Harnessing Quantum Capacitance in 2D Material/Molecular Layer Junctions for Novel Electronic Device Functionality

Two-dimensional (2D) materials promise advances in electronic devices beyond Moore’s scaling law through extended functionality, such as non-monotonic dependence of device parameters on input parameters. However, the robustness and performance of effects like negative differential resistance (NDR) and anti-ambipolar behavior have been limited in scale and robustness by relying on atomic defects and complex heterojunctions. In this paper, we introduce a novel device concept that utilizes the quantum capacitance of junctions between 2D materials and molecular layers. We realized a variable capacitance 2D molecular junction (vc2Dmj) diode through the scalable integration of graphene and single layers of stearic acid. The vc2Dmj exhibits NDR with a substantial peak-to-valley ratio even at room temperature and an active negative resistance region. The origin of this unique behavior was identified through thermoelectric measurements and ab initio calculations to be a hybridization effect between graphene and the molecular layer. The enhancement of device parameters through morphology optimization highlights the potential of our approach toward new functionalities that advance the landscape of future electronics.

Truncating 2D Framework Materials Down to a Single Pore: Synthetic Approaches and Opportunities

Here, in this Accounts article, we summarize our recent work on truncating conjugated two-dimensional framework materials down to a single pore, or a single macrocycle. Conjugated 2D architectures have emerged as one of the most synthetically adaptable motifs for coupling semiconductivity and porosity in metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs). However, despite their prevalence, 2D architectures have several limitations. In particular, the strong interlayer π–π stacking can limit both processability and the accessibility of internal active sites. We have found that simple macrocycles preserve key aspects of 2D framework structure and function, including porosity and out-of-plane electrical conductivity, while providing improved processability, surface tunability, and mass transport properties. In this article, we first describe our synthetic approach and general design considerations. Specifically, we show how ditopic analogues of the tritopic ligands commonly found in the synthesis of 2D MOFs and COFs can be used to achieve a diverse library of conjugated macrocycles that resemble fragments of semiconducting frameworks in both form and function. The length of the peripheral side chains, the size of the aromatic core, and the solubility of intermediates are all key variables in favoring selective macrocycle formation over undesired linear polymers and oligomers. Next, we highlight the unique advantages that macrocycles provide, including improved processability, atomically precise surface tunability, and greater active site accessibility. In particular, the identity of the peripheral side chains dramatically impacts both solubility and colloidal stability as well as crystal size and morphology. We further show how the solution processability and nanoscale dimensions of macrocycles can simplify electronic device fabrication and improve electrochemical performance. Finally, we end with a forward-looking discussion on how macrocycles offer a unique bridge between conjugated molecules and extended frameworks, enabling new application areas and fundamental science.

This final technical report summarizes the work accomplished in this DOE Early Career Research Program project that has established moiré superlattice materials and two-dimensional (2D) heterostructures as a highly tunable platform for controlling heterogeneous charge transfer (ET) kinetics at solid-liquid interfaces. By precisely engineering van der Waals heterostructures of atomically thin 2D materials, particularly bilayer and trilayer graphene with controlled twist angles, this project demonstrated systematic control of interfacial charge transfer rates spanning three orders of magnitude. This research addresses fundamental questions about how electronic structure, charge localization, and atomic layer-dependent properties govern charge transfer at electrochemical interfaces, with broad implications for energy conversion, electrocatalysis, and next-generation electrochemical devices.

Metalloborophenes: Structural Diversity and Emerging Properties of Metal–Boron Two‐Dimensional Frameworks

Metalloborophenes, an emerging subclass of 2D materials, have attracted growing attention owing to their exceptional structural diversity and highly tunable electronic and magnetic properties. Constructed from vacancy‐rich borophene frameworks stabilized by electron donation from incorporated metal atoms, metalloborophenes merge the chemical versatility of boron with the functional richness of metal dopants. The first experimental realization of Cu–borophene nanoribbons in 2024 marked a pivotal advance, confirming long‐standing theoretical predictions and revitalizing interest in this new frontier of boron‐based 2D chemistry. Despite this progress, most studies to date remain conceptual and theoretical, constrained by challenges in scalable synthesis, dopant precision, and substrate control. Computational investigations have revealed a broad landscape of stable metalloborophene structures, exhibiting metallic, semiconducting, and magnetic behavior across diverse dopant families, including alkali, alkaline‐earth, transition, and lanthanide elements. These tunable characteristics open promising avenues for applications in spintronics, catalysis, and hydrogen storage. This review provides a comprehensive overview of metalloborophenes, emphasizing the interplay between structure, stability, and functionality, and outlining future directions toward bridging predictive modeling with experimental realization of this rapidly evolving class of 2D materials.

Illuminating the Material World: Autonomous Microscopy to Understand Order, Disorder, and Everything In Between

Artificial intelligence (AI) holds immense promise for revolutionizing microscopy, yet its widespread adoption has been hindered by challenges ranging from user inexperience to limited model transferability and difficulties in operationalizing machine learning. This presentation showcases our approach to developing practical autonomy for materials discovery, aiming to accelerate the integration of AI into everyday microscopy workflows. As shown in Fig. 1, I will focus on three key areas: understanding order-disorder transitions, quantifying point defects, and achieving truly device-scale microscopy. First, I will demonstrate the power of multi-modal knowledge graphs for integrating diverse microscopy data. By combining imaging, spectroscopy, and diffraction data, these graphs provide a holistic view of material behavior, capturing the intricate relationships between different modalities [1,2]. I will present a case study on how these models illuminate the structural and chemical changes associated with irradiation in oxide thin films, revealing critical insights for designing materials for extreme environments like spaceflight and nuclear energy. Specifically, I will show how multi-modal analysis clarifies the evolution of order-disorder transitions under irradiation, a key factor influencing material performance in these applications. Next, I will address the challenge of quantifying point defects in 2D materials. We demonstrate the application of computer vision and transfer learning to accurately identify and classify various defect types, such as vacancies and substitutional atoms, and to quantify their concentrations. This information is crucial for understanding and tailoring the properties of 2D materials for applications in electronics, optoelectronics, and catalysis. For example, I will show how our models can characterize the topological distribution of point defects in MXene transition metal carbides, providing valuable insights for optimizing their performance in energy storage and separation science. Finally, I will discuss our progress toward autonomous device-scale microscopy [3,4]. We are fundamentally redesigning electron microscopes around the principles of machine reasoning, enabling automation beyond basic tasks like sample navigation and data acquisition to include sophisticated experimental design. This approach paves the way for truly reproducible and massively scaled analysis campaigns. I will emphasize the importance of autonomous microscopy platforms for high-throughput materials discovery and characterization, facilitating the rapid screening of materials for a broad range of applications and accelerating the development of next-generation technologies.

Spatially Precise Light‐Activated Dedoping in Wafer‐Scale MoS 2 Films

2D materials, particularly transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), have shown great potential for microelectronics and optoelectronics. However, a major challenge in commercializing these materials is the inability to control their doping at a wafer scale with high spatial fidelity. Interface chemistry is used with the underlying substrate oxide and concomitant exposure to visible light in ambient conditions for photo-dedoping wafer scale MoS 2 . It is hypothesized that the oxide layer traps photoexcited holes, leaving behind long-lived electrons that become available for surface reactions with ambient air at sulfur vacancies (defect sites) resulting in dedoping. Additionally, high fidelity spatial control is showcased over the dedoping process, by laser writing, and fine control achieved over the degree of doping by modulating the illumination time and power density. This localized change in MoS 2 doping density is very stable (at least 7 days) and robust to processing conditions like high temperature and vacuum. The scalability and ease of implementation of this approach can address one of the major issues preventing the “Lab to Fab” transition of 2D materials and facilitate its seamless integration for commercial applications in multi-logic devices, inverters, and other optoelectronic devices.

A large interlaboratory electron diffraction study of monolayer graphene

Standardisation of data collection and analysis is essential to enable commercialisation of 2D materials in a wide range of technologies. Selected area electron diffraction (SAED) in the transmission electron microscope (TEM) is one of the key methods for distinguishing monolayer from bilayer and few-layer graphene by comparing the 1st and 2nd order diffraction spot intensities. Yet there are many factors that can affect the reliability of data collection and interpretation, causing the measurement of monolayer samples to deviate from the literature boundary condition of $I_{\{\bar{2}110\}}$$/$$I_{\{1\bar{1}00\}}$ < 1 for monolayer graphene (1LG). Here we present the results of a large interlaboratory SAED comparison study, where 15 international laboratories measured and analysed nominally identical samples of chemical vapour deposited graphene. Large variations were observed in the measured ratios of diffraction spot intensities, with the largest variance associated with poor quality SAED data resulting from inadequate specimen handling and storage. To inform the reliable determination of monolayer thickness from SAED patterns we provide a description of best practice for specimen handling, TEM operation, data collection and analysis. This work was undertaken within VAMAS Technical Working Area 41: Graphene and related 2D materials—Project 9, the results of which have been directly incorporated into ISO/TS 21356–2 for the characterisation of graphene sheets. We find that when this methodology is followed, 1LG can be distinguished from bilayer or thicker material with high confidence where analysis of a single SAED pattern gives $I_{\{\bar{2}110\}}$$/$$I_{\{1\bar{1}00\}}$ < 1.2, even in the absence of precise specimen tilting.

When van der Waals Met Kagome: A 2D Antimonide with a Vanadium-Kagome Network

2D materials showcase unconventional properties emerging from quantum confinement effects. In this work, a “soft chemical” route allows for the deintercalation of K + from the layered antimonide KV 6 Sb 6 , resulting in the discovery of a new metastable 2D-Kagome antimonide K 0.1(1) V 6 Sb 6 with a van der Waals gap of 3.2 Å. The structure of K 0.1(1) V 6 Sb 6 was determined via the synergistic techniques, including X-ray pair distribution function analysis, advanced transmission electron microscopy, and density functional theory calculations. The K 0.1(1) V 6 Sb 6 compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/m (a = 9.57(2) Å, b = 5.502(8) Å, c = 10.23(2) Å, β = 97.6(2)°, Z = 2). The [V 6 Sb 6 ] layers in K 0.1(1) V 6 Sb 6 are retained upon deintercalation and closely resemble the layers in the parent compound, yet deintercalation results in a relative shift of the adjacent [V 6 Sb 6 ] layers. The magnetic properties of the K 0.1(1) V 6 Sb 6 phase in the 2–300 K range are comparable to those of KV 6 Sb 6 and another Kagome antimonide KV 3 Sb 5 , consistent with nearly temperature-independent paramagnetism. Electronic band structure calculation suggests a nontrivial band topology with flat bands and opening of band crossing afforded by deintercalation. Transport property measurements reveal a metallic nature for K 0.1(1) V 6 Sb 6 and a low thermal conductivity of 0.6 W K –1 m –1 at 300 K. Additionally, ion exchange in KV 6 Sb 6 via a solvothermal route leads to a successful partial exchange of K + with A + (A = Na, Rb, and Cs). Here, this study highlights the tunability of the layered structure of the KV 6 Sb 6 compound, providing a rich playground for the realization of new 2D materials.

Measuring the flatband potential in 2D semiconductors: Pitfalls and a possible SECCM solution

The flatband potential (V fb ) is a critical parameter in semiconductor electrochemistry, defining the potential at which no excess charge exists at the semiconductor/electrolyte interface. It serves as a key reference for interpreting charge transfer kinetics and current–voltage behavior. However, conventional methods like Mott–Schottky analysis fail for atomically thin 2D materials due to the breakdown of the depletion approximation. This perspective examines the limitations of traditional V fb measurements for 2D semiconductors and the experimental challenges that arise. To address these issues, we propose using scanning electrochemical cell microscopy (SECCM) to spatially resolve the potential of zero charge (V pzc ), equivalent to V fb . This approach mitigates sample heterogeneity issues, such as pinholes or multilayer defects, and offers a pathway to more accurate electrochemical characterization. Ultimately, this method will enhance understanding of current–potential behavior in 2D materials, supporting the design of advanced systems for photoelectrocatalysis, energy conversion, and sensing.

Scalable slot-die coating of phyllosilicate membranes for selective ion separations

Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) materials have recently drawn attention as candidate materials for molecular-scale membrane separations due to their tunable nanoscale interlayer properties. Phyllosilicates, a broad class of naturally abundant 2D clay minerals, offer significant advantages over synthetic 2D materials, including low cost, stability, and environmental compatibility. While these properties make phyllosilicates attractive for industrial-scale nanofiltration applications, phyllosilicate-based membranes have, to date, only been fabricated at the lab scale via vacuum filtration. Scalable fabrication methods are essential to advance the technical maturity of phyllosilicate membranes and bring these promising materials closer to large-scale adoption. Herein, we have successfully scaled up phyllosilicate (vermiculite) membrane fabrication via slot-die coating and roll-to-roll coating of an ethylenediamine–vermiculite (EDAVM) mixture onto nylon. The coated membranes are 1–2 μm $ \unicode{x03BC} \mathrm{m} $ mu m in thickness and exhibit similar structure and performance to vacuum-filtered EDAVM membranes. The membranes also show selectivity for monovalent ions over multivalent ions in binary salt mixtures. This work represents a major step toward scaling up phyllosilicate membranes for industrial ion separation applications such as resource recovery from water.

Medium-Entropy Engineering of Magnetism in Layered Antiferromagnet Cu x Ni 2(1- x ) Cr x P 2 S 6

Antiferromagnetic van der Waals-type M 2 P 2 X 6 compounds provide a versatile material platform for studying 2D magnetism and relevant phenomena. Establishing ferromagnetism in 2D materials is technologically valuable. Though magnetism is generally tunable via a chemical way, it is challenging to induce ferromagnetism with isovalent chalcogen and bimetallic substitutions in M 2 P 2 X 6 . Here, we report co-substitution of Cu 1+ and Cr 3+ for Ni 2+ in Ni 2 P 2 S 6 , creating Cu x Ni 2(1-x) Cr x P 2 S 6 medium-entropy alloys spanning a full substitution range (x = 0 to 1). Such substitution strategy leads to a unique evolution in crystal structure and magnetic phases that are distinct from traditional isovalent bimetallic doping, with Cu and Cr co-substitution enhancing ferromagnetic correlations and generating a weak ferromagnetic phase in intermediate compositions. This aliovalent substitution strategy offers a universal approach for tuning layered magnetism in antiferromagnetic systems, which along with the potential for light-matter interaction and high-temperature ferroelectricity, can enable multifunctional device applications.

Large scale polymer toughening of two-dimensional materials revealed by in situ TEM fracture tests and multiscale simulations

Two-dimensional (2D) materials offer significant potential for applications in energy-harvesting devices, batteries, sensors, and transistors. However, their intrinsic brittleness makes them prone to mechanical failure, limiting their practical use. In this work, we perform in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) fracture tests on monolayer MoSe2 and uncover an extrinsic toughening effect induced by an ultrathin adsorbed polystyrene adlayer. This adlayer substantially enhances the fracture resistance of the 2D flakes. Through a combination of molecular dynamics simulations and finite element analysis, we elucidate the molecular mechanism behind this toughening effect. Further, it arises from the active crack-bridging behavior of entangled polymer chains and the formation of a fracture process zone that stabilizes crack propagation and increases the energy required for crack extension. The proposed toughening mechanism offers a pathway to improving the mechanical reliability of 2D material-based devices by mitigating the risk of sudden failure.

Insulating moiré homobilayers lack a threefold symmetric second-harmonic generation

Atoms within moiré bilayers relax in plane to minimize elastic energy; such relaxation brings their space group symmetries down to P1. Here, the ab initio second harmonic generation (SHG) of twisted and atomistically optimized hBN bilayers was determined at four twist angles (θ = 38.21°, 60.00°, 73.17°, and 98.21°) and for three displacements τ measured away from the ground state AA' configuration. All moiré bilayers have a P1 space symmetry after structural optimization. This situation is quite different to monolayers with hexagonal lattices, which retain a threefold symmetry. We point out that the actual symmetries of the SHG reported for hBN bilayers on two experimental works do not coincide with the sixfold symmetric theoretical profiles they provide [either sin 2 ⁡(3⁢Φ) or cos 2 ⁡(3⁢Φ)], and show that the intrinsic low structural symmetry of (atomically optimized) hBN bilayer moirés can in fact be read out from experimental SHG intensity profiles—which are tunable by θ and by the frequency of light ω: The SHG is most definitely not sixfold symmetric because moirés do not retain a threefold symmetry. Furthermore, an extrinsic twofold symmetry of the SHG emission is realized by tilting the pump by an angle α away from the 2D material's normal, regardless of θ and ω. Furthermore, the design of in-plane and ultrathin sources of SHG with low symmetry could be useful for the eventual creation of entanglement sources from 2D materials.

One-Step Transfer of Symmetric and Asymmetric Contacts for Large-Scale 2D Electronics and Optoelectronics

Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors are highly promising candidates for thin-film transistor applications due to their scalability, transferability, atomic thickness, and relatively high carrier mobility. However, a substantial performance gap remains between individual devices based on single-crystalline 2D films and wafer-scale integrated circuits, primarily due to defects introduced during conventional fabrication processes. Here, we report a diamond-assisted electrode transfer technique for the van der Waals integration of wafer-scale prefabricated electrode arrays onto 2D materials, enabling scalable electronics and optoelectronics. Implemented on metal–organic chemical vapor deposition-grown monolayer molybdenum disulfide, this method forms ultraclean metal–semiconductor interfaces, yielding field-effect transistors with excellent ohmic contacts, a low contact resistance of 400 Ω·μm, and a Schottky barrier height of only 9 meV. Furthermore, we demonstrate a scalable transistor array on monolayer molybdenum disulfide with excellent device performance uniformity, achieving an average field-effect mobility of 30 cm 2 V –1 s –1 and an on/off current ratio exceeding 105. Additionally, high photocurrent and responsivity were demonstrated in the array devices, showing their potential for excellent image detection. We further demonstrate the versatility of this technique by fabricating a Schottky diode array through a single-step transfer of asymmetric electrodes─low work function aluminum and high work function gold─onto monolayer tungsten diselenide. This approach provides a clean, effective solution for contact engineering in 2D materials, offering a viable pathway toward wafer-scale, high-performance 2D electronics, optoelectronics, and integrated circuits.

Protein-Enabled Size-Selective Defect-Sealing of Atomically Thin 2D Membranes for Dialysis and Nanoscale Separations

Atomically thin 2D materials present the potential for advancing membrane separations via a combination of high selectivity (from molecular sieving) and high permeance (due to atomic thinness). However, the creation of a high density of precise nanopores (narrow-size-distribution) over large areas in 2D materials remains challenging, and nonselective leakage from nanopore heterogeneity adversely impacts performance. Here, we demonstrate protein-enabled size-selective defect sealing (PDS) for atomically thin graphene membranes over centimeter scale areas by leveraging the size and reactivity of permeating proteins to preferentially seal larger nanopores (≥4 nm) while preserving a significant amount of smaller nanopores (via steric hindrance). Our defect-sealed nanoporous atomically thin membranes (NATMs) show stability up to ~35 days during size-selective diffusive separations with a model dialysis biomolecule fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-Ficoll 70 in phosphate buffer saline (PBS) solution as well as outperform state-of-the-art commercially available dialysis membranes (molecular-weight-cutoff ~3.5–5 kDa and ~8–10 kDa) with significantly higher permeance for smaller solutes KCl (~0.66 nm) ~5.1–6 × 10 –5 ms –1 and vitamin B12 (B12, ~1.5 nm) ~2.8–4 × 10 –6 ms –1 compared to small protein lysozyme (Lz, ~4 nm) ~4–6.4 × 10 –8 m s –1 , thereby allowing unprecedented selectivity for B12/Lz ~70 and KCl/Lz ~1280. Our work introduces proteins as nanoscale tools for size-selective defect sealing in atomically thin membranes to overcome persistent issues and advance separations for dialysis, protein desalting, small molecule separations/purification, and other bioprocesses.

Spatially Enhanced Electrostatic Doping in Graphene Realized via Heterointerfacial Precipitated Metals

Forming heavily-doped regions in 2D materials, like graphene, is a steppingstone to the design of emergent devices and heterostructures. Here, a selective-area approach is presented to tune the work-function and carrier density in monolayer graphene by spatially synthesizing sub-monolayer gallium beneath the 2D-solid. The localized metallic gallium is formed via precipitation from an underlying diamond-like carbon (DLC) film that is spatially implanted with gallium-ions. By controlling the interfacial precipitation process with annealing temperature, spatially precise ambipolar tuning of the graphene work-function is achieved, and the tunning effect preserved upon cooling to ambient conditions. Consequently, charge carrier densities from ≈1.8 × 10 10 cm -2 (hole-doped) to ≈7 × 10 13 cm -2 (electron-doped) are realized, confirmed by in situ and ex situ measurements. The theoretical studies corroborated the role of gallium at the heterointerface on charge transfer and electrostatic doping of the graphene overlayer. Specifically, sub-monolayer gallium facilitates heavy n-doping in graphene. Extending this doping strategy to other implantable elements in DLC provides a new means of exploring the physics and chemistry of highly-doped 2D materials.

Tunable Localized Charge Transfer Excitons in Nanoplatelet–2D Chalcogenide van der Waals Heterostructures

Observation of interlayer, charge transfer (CT) excitons in van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs) based on 2D–2D systems has been well investigated. While conceptually interesting, these charge transfer excitons are highly delocalized and spatially localizing them requires twisting layers at very specific angles. This issue of localizing the CT excitons can be overcome via making nanoplate–2D material heterostructures (N2DHs) where one of the components is a spatially quantum confined medium. Here, we demonstrate the formation of CT excitons in a mixed dimensional system comprising MoSe 2 and WSe 2 monolayers and CdSe/CdS-based core/shell nanoplates (NPLs). Spectral signatures of CT excitons in our N2DHs were resolved locally at the 2D/single-NPL heterointerface using tip-enhanced photoluminescence (TEPL) at room temperature. By varying both the 2D material and the shell thickness of the NPLs and applying an out-of-plane electric field, the exciton resonance energy was tuned by up to 100 meV. Finally, our finding is a significant step toward the realization of highly tunable N2DH-based next-generation photonic devices.
