Atomically Thin Semiconductor Wafers

Caption

This image shows atomically thin semiconductor wafers (MoS2 monolayers, lateral dimension of each panel ~ 1cm, wafer thickness of only ~0.7 nm). We obtained these monolayers from layer-by-layer exfoliation of a MoS2 single crystal using the gold tape method. The images have been Photoshop-processed for artistic appeal.
