About the Spotlight Collection

Two-dimensional (2D) materials have fascinated scientists for more than a decade. While most work has been devoted to inorganic systems, there has been a distinct increase in metal-organic 2D materials. This themed collection will provide a brief overview of the latest developments of the inorganic and metal-organic 2D materials. It covers everything from synthetic strategies, chemical design, the variety of electronic, chemical and optical properties to applications in catalysis, sensors, energy storage and conversion, electronics and other related areas.

Articles will be added to this open and on-going spotlight collection as soon as possible after they are published. You can find a selection of the articles below and check out the growing collection online here:
