Abstract

Inorganic layered materials are composed of stacked nanometer-thick inorganic crystalline sheets, which are weakly bound by electrostatic, van der Waals, or hydrogen-bonding interactions. These materials are obtained from natural soil or are synthesized by hydrothermal heating or calcination at high temperature from mixture of raw chemicals. Depending on the chemical composition, the layered material possesses functionalities such as conductivity, semiconductivity, magnetic property, luminescence property, and photocatalytic activity. In this section, recent development of nanoarchitectonics with layered materials as achieved by intercalation and exfoliation technique are reviewed.
