From two-dimensional materials to their heterostructures: An electrochemist's perspective
Open accessAbstract
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have, within just one decade, reshaped many disciplines of modern science and technology, both through intensive fundamental research and early commercial applications. In this review, we will provide a comprehensive summary of the properties, synthesis, characterisation, and application of 2D materials in the context of electrochemistry and related scientific fields. Firstly, the structural, electronic, optical, and mechanical properties, and a variety of preparation and characterisation techniques of 2D materials are presented. Secondly, current electrochemical understanding of 2D and layered materials and their modification is discussed. Lastly, future perspectives and new frontiers in optoelectronics, photocatalysis, and renewable energy using 2D materials are outlined. Our primary focus is on group 6 transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) and other emerging 2D materials beyond graphene, including their heterostructures. These nanomaterials are essential for the next generation of devices in tuneable electrochemistry, sensing, and photovoltaics. Although broad in scope, this review is not an exhaustive list of facts; rather, it summarises the established knowledge and pinpoints the most promising future trends. It is aimed at readers with background in electrochemistry wanting to broaden their perspective or initiate research on 2D materials as well as those with 2D materials expertise looking to work on electrochemistry-based applications, such as energy storage and conversion.

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.
