Abstract

When water is constrained between two sheets of graphene, it becomes a 2D liquid and then is turned into an intriguing monolayer solid with a square pattern due to the high van der Waals pressure. From a mechanics point of view, this liquid-to-solid transformation characterizes the compression limit (or metastability limit) of 2D liquid. In this chapter, we systemically investigated the compression limit of 2D water confined in graphene nanocapillaries and the associated phase diagram was obtained.
