Ion beam modification of two-dimensional materials: Characterization, properties, and applications

The layered two-dimensional (2D) materials, e.g., the well-known graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides, and topological insulators, have attracted great interest of researchers from fundamental research as well as industries owing to their intriguing properties in a number of aspects. In practical applications, the efficient modification of the features of 2D materials is compelling and essential to achieve desired functionalities. Ion implantation has been successfully applied to synthesize graphene. The most exotic advantage of ion beam technology is that it offers distinct options of energetic beams, which has recently shown the unique capability to modify and tailor the properties of versatile 2D materials. To name a few, the energetic ion beams could implement the surface morphology or layer-to-layer structural engineering of 2D materials. At the microcosmic level, the introduction of ion beam induced defects and intentional doping of specific ions are the basis of tailoring properties of 2D mat...
