Title: Compositions comprising free-standing two-dimensional nanocrystals

Abstract

The present invention is directed to compositions comprising at least one layer or at least two layers, each layer comprising a substantially two-dimensional array of crystal cells, having first and second surfaces, each crystal cell having the empirical formula of Mn+1Xn, where M, X, and n are described in the specification, and devices incorporating these compositions.
