Creating 2D nanosheets where the molecules in the layers are held together only by weak non-covalent bonds

An international team of researchers has found a way to create 2D nanosheets in which the molecules in the layers are bound only by weak, non-covalent bonds. In their paper published in the journal Nature, the group describes their process and possible uses for it. Claudia Backes with Kassel University has published a News & Views piece in the same journal issue outlining the work.
