Two-dimensional materials are vital for the type of semiconductors that will push the future of electronic devices and energy-efficient lighting, but they are a challenge to make. They must have very few defects, difficult given their very small, nano-level size.

A research partnership between Penn State and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) could enable an improved method to make a new type of semiconductor that is a few atoms thin and interacts with light in an unusual way. This new semiconductor could lead to new computing and communications technologies that use lower amounts of energy than current electronics.
A new, atomically-thin materials platform will open a wide range of new applications in biomolecular sensing, quantum phenomena, catalysis and nonlinear optics.
