TL;DR: A solution-based method is reported that allows uniform and controllable deposition of reduced graphene oxide thin films with thicknesses ranging from a single monolayer to several layers over large areas, which could represent a route for translating the interesting fundamental properties of graphene into technologically viable devices.

TL;DR: A number of methods have been developed to exfoliate layered materials in order to produce monolayer nanosheets, which are ideal for applications that require surface activity.

TL;DR: A solution-based hot-casting technique is demonstrated to grow continuous, pinhole-free thin films of organometallic perovskites with millimeter-scale crystalline grains that are applicable to several other material systems plagued by polydispersity, defects, and grain boundary recombination in solution-processed thin films.

TL;DR: Analyses indicate that the enhanced electrocatalytic activity of WS₂ is associated with the high concentration of the strained metallic 1T (octahedral) phase in the as-exfoliated nanosheets.

TL;DR: It is shown that chemically exfoliated nanosheets of MoS2 containing a high concentration of the metallic 1T phase can electrochemically intercalate ions with extraordinary efficiency and achieve capacitance values ranging from ∼400 to ∼700 F cm(-3) in a variety of aqueous electrolytes.
