Non-Covalent Synthesis as a New Strategy for Generating Supramolecular Layered Heterostructures

Abstract

Noncovalent synthesis of stable heterostructures (graphene-BN, MoS2-graphene) of layered materials has been accomplished by a ternary host–guest complex as a heterocomplementary supramolecular motif. Besides being reversible, this supramolecular strategy to generate heterostructures may find uses in many situations.
