In a paper published in the journal Nature Materials, the Northwestern University/Argonne National Laboratory team behind the discovery explains that such studies could spur the invention of new materials for a variety of energy conversion devices.

The initial target material was a combination of silver, potassium and selenium (α-KAg3Se2) in a four-layered structure — like a wedding cake. These 2D materials have length and width, but almost no thickness at only four atoms high. Click here to read more.

Thanks for the share, KE!
