2d layered materials are an exciting new class of materials with extraordinary physical and chemical behaviors. They have the potential to enable an entire fleet of new technological applications ranging from electronics to photonics. In this presentation, I will show new synthetic growth methods to create high-quality 2D chalcogenide materials including a novel semiconductor, Si2Te3. I will present a novel chemical method to reversibly intercalate and deintercalate high concentrations of atomic species including heavy metals, semiconductors, and semimetals (Ag, Au, Bi, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ge, In, Mn, Mo, Ni, Os, Pb, Pd, Pt, Rh, Ru, Sb, Sn, and W) into layered materials. The zero-valent nature of the intercalant species allows for super-stochiometric intercalation of atomic species. This method achieves novel physics and applied behaviors including chemochromic properties. I will show how this work achieves opto-electronic application such as color-changing Smart Materials.
