Atomic Defects in Two‐Dimensional Materials: From Single‐Atom Spectroscopy to Functionalities in Opto‐/Electronics, Nanomagnetism, and Catalysis

Hong, Jinhua, Jin, Chuanhong, Yuan, Jun, Zhang, Ze·2017·Advanced Materials

Abstract

Two‐dimensional layered graphene‐like crystals including transition‐metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have received extensive research interest due to their diverse electronic, valleytronic, and chemical properties, with the corresponding optoelectronics and catalysis application being actively explored. However, the recent surge in two‐dimensional materials science is accompanied by equally great challenges, such as defect engineering in large‐scale sample synthesis. It is necessary to elucidate the effect of structural defects on the electronic properties in order to develop an application‐specific strategy for defect engineering. Here, two aspects of the existing knowledge of native defects in two‐dimensional crystals are reviewed. One is the point defects emerging in graphene and hexagonal boron nitride, as probed by atomically resolved electron microscopy, and their local electronic properties, as measured by single‐atom electron energy‐loss spectroscopy. The other will focus on the point defects in TMDs and their influence on the electronic structure, photoluminescence, and electric transport properties. This review of atomic defects in two‐dimensional materials will offer a clear picture of the defect physics involved to demonstrate the local modulation of the electronic properties and possible benefits in potential applications in magnetism and catalysis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
