Research reinvents MXene synthesis

Caption

A colorized scanning electron microscopy (SEM) image of a two-dimensional material called a MXene. This particular MXene, a combination of niobium, carbon and chlorine, was synthesized using a new "bottom-up" method pioneered by researchers from the University of Chicago, University of Illinois Chicago and Vanderbilt University through the NSF Center for Chemical Innovation on MXenes Synthesis, Tunability and Reactivity (M-STAR)
