Since the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for research on graphene in 2010, 2-D materials—nanosheets with atomic thickness—have been a hot topic in science. This significant interest is due to their outstanding properties, which have enormous potential for a wide variety of applications. For instance, combined with optical fibers, 2-D materials can enable novel applications in the areas of sensors, non-linear optics, and quantum technologies.
