Isolation of a Single Tellurium Atomic Chain

Abstract

We propose to explore one-dimensional (1D) van der Waals nanomaterial - tellurium (Te) - and to isolate and realize a single atomic chain of Te. Although thousands of publications in van der Waals 2D materials including graphene, MoS2 and phosphorene in the past decade, we are not aware of any single experimental work on 1D van der Waals nano-materials such as Te or selenium (Se) in the recent wave of 2D research. Using liquid solution synthesis, we are able to form a 2D form of tellurium which we call it tellurene.
