2D materials are at the very limit of thin-film dimensions with thicknesses down to a single atom. While graphene kick-started exploration and application of these ultra-thin materials, it has created a vast field of exploration and application of several other 2D materials like nitrides (hBN) and transition metal dichalcogenides (MoS2, WSe2 etc.).
While these materials can be found in nature and can be exfoliated from the bulk crystals, chemical vapour-based techniques are employed to allow easy scale-up for future devices.

2D materials exhibit superlative electronic and optoelectronic properties which researchers today are working on harnessing for next-generation devices for electronics, optoelectronics and flexible devices.
Various aspects of 2D materials can be beneficial for applications and depending on the application people might aim for single layers with high mobility for transistors or multiple layers in many orientations for catalysis applications, such as water splitting.
2D materials such as graphene, MoS2 or hBN can be used to enhance current devices and build new device architectures. FETs, batteries and filters with unique properties can now be realised.
At Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology we have excellent experience with a wide range of processes, from high-temperature CVD to low-temperature ALD.
