Abstract:
2D silica bilayers are coordinatively self-saturated oxide layers with an SiO2 stoichiometry and well-defined thickness. They interact weakly with their substrate and can be grown with amorphous, crystalline, or a mixed topology. Recently, a mechanical exfoliation method has been presented that allows transferring the vapor-deposited films from the growth substrate to another support material. Throughout this procedure, no significant material loss or damage was observed. Based on this transferability, the incorporation of 2D silica films in various applications is feasible.
