What is Mechanical Exfoliation?

Mechanical exfoliation is a technique used to isolate thin layers of material from their bulk counterparts. This method has gained significant attention in the field of Nanotechnology due to its ability to produce high-quality, atomically thin layers of materials like graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), and hexagonal boron nitride. The process typically involves applying mechanical forces to peel off layers from bulk crystals.
