There are several methods for synthesizing 2D materials:
1. Mechanical Exfoliation: This method involves peeling layers from bulk crystals using adhesive tape, commonly used for graphene. 2. Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD): A popular method to grow high-quality, large-area 2D materials by depositing gaseous reactants on a substrate. 3. Liquid-Phase Exfoliation: Bulk materials are exfoliated in a solvent using ultrasonic waves to produce 2D materials. 4. Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE): A technique for growing thin films of 2D materials with atomic precision.
Each method has its advantages and limitations based on the desired application and material properties.
