  bibo_abstract:
  - Research on two-dimensional (2D) materials has been explosively increasing in
    last seventeen years in varying subjects including condensed matter physics, electronic
    engineering, materials science, and chemistry since the mechanical exfoliation
    of graphene in 2004. Starting from graphene, 2D materials now have become a big
    family with numerous members and diverse categories. The unique structural features
    and physicochemical properties of 2D materials make them one class of the most
    appealing candidates for a wide range of potential applications. In particular,
    we have seen some major breakthroughs made in the field of 2D materials in last
    five years not only in developing novel synthetic methods and exploring new structures/properties
    but also in identifying innovative applications and pushing forward commercialisation.
    In this review, we provide a critical summary on the recent progress made in the
    field of 2D materials with a particular focus on last five years. After a brief
    background introduction, we first discuss the major synthetic methods for 2D materials,
    including the mechanical exfoliation, liquid exfoliation, vapor phase deposition,
    and wet-chemical synthesis as well as phase engineering of 2D materials belonging
    to the field of phase engineering of nanomaterials (PEN). We then introduce the
    superconducting/optical/magnetic properties and chirality of 2D materials along
    with newly emerging magic angle 2D superlattices. Following that, the promising
    applications of 2D materials in electronics, optoelectronics, catalysis, energy
    storage, solar cells, biomedicine, sensors, environments, etc. are described sequentially.
    Thereafter, we present the theoretic calculations and simulations of 2D materials.
    Finally, after concluding the current progress, we provide some personal discussions
    on the existing challenges and future outlooks in this rapidly developing field.
