Interfaces the key in atomically-thin, 'high temperature' superconductors

An international research team published a review of atomically-thin 'high temperature' superconductors finds that each has a common driving mechanism: interfaces.

A new library of atomically thin two-dimensional materials

Researchers have created a whole new library of atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) materials, christened 'ic-2D', to denote a class of materials based on self-intercalation of native atoms into the gap between the layers of crystals.
