2D materials are substances with a thickness of just a few atoms, often only a single layer, offering unique physical, electronic, and chemical properties not found in their bulk counterparts. Graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a hexagonal lattice, is the most well-known example, but the field has rapidly expanded to include materials like transition metal dichalcogenides, hexagonal boron nitride, and phosphorene. Because of their exceptional strength, flexibility, and conductivity, 2D materials are being explored for use in next-generation electronics, quantum computing, energy storage, and even biomedical devices. Research in this area is reshaping our understanding of material science at the atomic scale.
