MXenes for Nanophotonics
Sabahat Urossha, S.S. Ali
Considerable attention has been paid to Mxenes which is a novel group of two-dimensional materials. Exceptional 2D layered microstructures make this family quite attractive for potential applications in a number of photoelectric applications along with their nonlinear optical and short electronic transport characteristics. This 2D group of materials comprises of transition metal carbides, carbonitrides, and nitrides having formula Mn+1Xn (where M = Sc, Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, etc., and X = C and/or N). Owing to some unmatched features of Mxenes like hydrophilic surfaces and high conductivities (~6000–8000 S/cm), these can be implemented in potential applications such as catalysis, energy storage, and field effect transistors etc.
