Method for synthesizing 2d nanosheets using quantum dot templates
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11964879B2) discloses a method for preparing two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets using a nanoparticle template, specifically a quantum dot. The process involves growing the nanosheet on the template's surface, removing it, and then separating it from the template. The nanosheet and the quantum dot exhibit different crystal structures with a lattice mismatch of 5% or less, highlighting the precision of the method.
Furthermore, the patent claims variations in the method, such as acidifying the nanosheet, utilizing intercalation and exfoliation for removal, and employing size-selective separation techniques. The use of different nanoparticle templates, including nanopyramids, is also specified. These variations aim to enhance the efficiency and quality of the nanosheet preparation process, ensuring a controlled and reproducible outcome. Overall, the patent provides a detailed and structured approach to producing 2D nanosheets with specific crystal structures, offering potential applications in various fields requiring nanomaterials with tailored properties.
