Many layered materials can be disassembled into isolated atomic planes, similar to graphite that splits into graphene layers. A few years ago, we demonstrated that such atomic planes – two-dimensional (2D) crystals – can be stacked on top of each other making so-called van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures. This has ignited a new field that is booming and has not disappointed in delivering interesting science. However, research efforts have so far involved only relatively simple structures that are assembled from 2 or 3 crystals and employ only a very limited number of 2D materials. This proposal is based on several recent experimental and technological advances by the applicant’s group.…
