Defect chemistry in 2D atomic layers for energy photocatalysis by Di, Jun, Hao, Gazi, Jiang, Wei, Liu, Zheng

“…In 2D atomic layers, even infinitesimal amounts of defects can unlock the great potential that exists for tailoring the carrier concentration, electronic states, spin nature, and so on. The specific defects can introduce defect energy levels into the band gap and extend the light absorption. …”
