Description

The intense research in layered materials showed the rich physics and promising prospective of 2D materials and monolayer.
Still one question remains open: what is the nature of the electronic motion between the layers of 2D materials? The reason for the limited number of investigations comes from an evident practical limit: high quality single crystals, have naturally a reduced thickness in the out of plane direction.
We overcome this limit using the Focused ion Beam.

Our results call for a new point of view on 2D electronic materials. Experimental evidences shows that out of plane transport provide new insight into electronic properties of layered materials.
