Just imagine taking two extremely ultra-thin materials with different properties and placing one on top of the other, and obtaining a new material with hybrid properties. This is what an international group of researchers have done with two atomic level semiconductor materials and have got a new material whose properties are not only hybrid but also tunable
How thin can the thinnest material be? It can be as thin as 100,000 times thinner than a sheet of paper. You may not be able to imagine or see with naked eyes such a material, but this is what a group of Indian scientists have done.
