Control growth of ultrathin 2D ferromagnetic manganese selenide nanosheets by chemical vapour deposition

Two-dimensional (2D) magnetic crystals with intrinsic ferromagnetism are highly desirable for potential applications in future spin-electronic devices. However, the controllable synthesis of these 2D magnets, especially the direct growth on substrate surfaces, is still a great challenge. Here, we re...
