Supercritical CO2-assisted fabrication of advanced two-dimensional materials and their heterostructure

Advanced two-dimensional (2D) materials with unique structural features and fascinating physicochemical properties are reviewed for diverse applications. Based on the unique properties of supercritical carbon dioxide (SC CO2), we focus on the recent progress on fabrication of advanced 2D materials and their heterostructure with the assistance of SC CO2 and further exploration of fabrication for functional nanomaterials such amorphous materials and quantum dots. Furthermore, promising features, challenges and opportunities in SC CO2-assisted fabrication techniques are discussed. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.
