Metal Phosphorous Trichalcogenides (MPCh(3)): From Synthesis to Contemporary Energy Challenges

Owing to their unique physical and chemical properties, layered two-dimensional (2D) materials have been established as the most significant topic in materials science for the current decade. This includes layers comprising mono-element (graphene, phosphorene), di-element (metal dichalcogenides), and even multi-element. A distinctive class of 2D layered materials is the metal phosphorous trichalcogenides (MPCh(3), Ch=S, Se), …
