This article explores the pioneering work of Dr. Laura Fumagalli and her team in using advanced Scanning Dielectric Microscopy to investigate the electric polarization properties of nanomaterials like 2D crystals and biomolecules.
When two atomically thin graphene-like materials are placed on top of each other their properties change, and a material with novel hybrid properties emerges. They are called van der Waals materials because the individual layers are attached to each other via a weak so called van der Waals interaction
