Abstract

The third dimension comes to the rescue in the synthesis of laterally confined 2D crystals. Graphene-type sheets of layered metal(IV) chalcogenides are stabilized by stacking to form nano-objects that resemble a coin roll. Mismatch strain between NbS2 and WS2 lattices is important for the stabilization of the coin-roll structure as well as for preventing the formation of the intrinsically more stable scroll structures such as fullerenes or nanotubes.
