TL;DR: In this paper, the structural, electrical, mechanical, optical, and thermal properties of 2D hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) have been extensively studied.

TL;DR: A multifunctional bio-nanocomposite comprised largely of egg-derived polymers and cellulose nanomaterials as a conformal coating onto fresh produce that slows down food decay by retarding ripening, dehydration, and microbial invasion is reported.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated how the thermodynamics of mixing in the MoReSe2 system during CVD growth dictates the formation of atomically sharp interfaces between MoSe2 and ReSe2, which can be confirmed by high resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy imaging, revealing zig-zag selenium-terminated interface between the epitaxial 2H and 1T' lattices.

TL;DR: In this paper, a non-van der Waals type ultra-thin nanosheet of FeS2 derived from naturally occurring pyrite mineral (FeS2) by means of liquid-phase exfoliation was identified.

TL;DR: DC magnetization measurements prove ferrimagnetic ordering with increased magnetization and density functional theory calculations ascribe their origin to the low dimensionality of the magnetite layers, and surface energy calculations for different cleavage planes in passivated magnetite crystal agree with the experimental observations of obtaining 2D sheets from non-van der Waals crystals.
