Ultrathin nanosheets of vanadium diselenide: a metallic two-dimensional material with ferromagnetic charge-density-wave behavior.

A new metallic 2D material with high electrical conductivity (1×10(3) S m(-1)) consists of VSe2 ultrathin nanosheets with 4-8 Se-V-Se atomic layers. This is the first 2D transition-metal dichalcogenide with intrinsic room-temperature ferromagnetism. The nanosheets increase the charge-density-wave transition temperature to 135 K by dimensional reduction.
