Abstract

Connecting two-dimensional (2D) material layers via interface linkers represents a new avenue for fabricating 2D heterostructures. Utilizing light to remotely modulate this interface function allows for seamless assembly and patterning in a single run. Here, an efficient method for fabricating patte...
