Continuous Heteroepitaxy of Two-Dimensional Heterostructures Based on Layered Chalcogenides

The in-plane connection and layer-by-layer stacking of atomically thin layered materials are expected to allow the fabrication of two-dimensional (2D) heterostructures with exotic physical properties and future engineering applications. However, it is currently necessary to develop a continuous growth process that allows the assembly of a wide variety of atomic layers without interface degradation, contamination, and/or alloying. Herein, we...
