which describes the new material, the 2D gold is comfortably thinner than previous attempts.
Ultrathin nanomaterials such as these have unique structural features which open up the possibility for numerous applications. However, producing ultrathin 2D metal nanomaterials free of a solid substrate—a surface or material which provides support—poses a significant challenge, according to Ye. Nevertheless, the researchers managed to achieve this by developing a new production technique.
According to Ye, the latest development represents a"landmark achievement," which could be particularly beneficial to the medical and electronics industries. One of the main potential applications for the 2D gold could be as a catalyst to speed up chemical reactions in numerous industrial process.
