New directions in science and technology: two-dimensional crystals

TLDR
Graphene is possibly one of the largest and fastest growing fields in condensed matter research as mentioned in this paper, however, graphene is only one example in a large class of two-dimensional crystals with unusual properties.
Abstract
Graphene is possibly one of the largest and fastest growing fields in condensed matter research. However, graphene is only one example in a large class of two-dimensional crystals with unusual properties. In this paper we briefly review the properties of graphene and look at the exciting possibilities that lie ahead.

Phonon-limited mobility in n -type single-layer MoS 2 from first principles

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the phonon-limited mobility in intrinsic $n$-type single-layer MoS for temperatures $Tg100$ K. The mobility is weakly dependent on the carrier density.

Controlled charge trapping by molybdenum disulphide and graphene in ultrathin heterostructured memory devices

TL;DR: These non-volatile memory devices, based on field-effect transistors with large hysteresis, consisting entirely of stacked two-dimensional materials show high mobility, high on/off current ratio, large memory window and stable retention, providing a promising route towards flexible and transparent memory devices utilizing atomically thin two- dimensional materials.

High-performance, highly bendable MoS2 transistors with high-K dielectrics for flexible low-power systems

TL;DR: Detailed studies of MoS2 transistors on industrial plastic sheets reveal robust electronic properties down to a bending radius of 1 mm which is comparable to previous reports for flexible graphene transistors, and provides guidance for achieving flexible MoS 2 transistors that are reliable at sub-mm bending radius.

Two-dimensional gas of massless Dirac fermions in graphene

TL;DR: This study reports an experimental study of a condensed-matter system (graphene, a single atomic layer of carbon) in which electron transport is essentially governed by Dirac's (relativistic) equation and reveals a variety of unusual phenomena that are characteristic of two-dimensional Dirac fermions.

Measurement of the Elastic Properties and Intrinsic Strength of Monolayer Graphene

TL;DR: Graphene is established as the strongest material ever measured, and atomically perfect nanoscale materials can be mechanically tested to deformations well beyond the linear regime.

Single-layer MoS2 transistors

TL;DR: Because monolayer MoS(2) has a direct bandgap, it can be used to construct interband tunnel FETs, which offer lower power consumption than classical transistors, and could also complement graphene in applications that require thin transparent semiconductors, such as optoelectronics and energy harvesting.
