Popis: | Ordered heterostructures of layered materials where interlayers with different reactivities strictly alternate in stacks offer predetermined slippage planes that provide a precise route for the preparation of bilayer materials. We use this route for the synthesis of a novel type of reinforced layered silicate bilayer that is 15 % stiffer than the corresponding monolayer. Furthermore, we will demonstrate that triggering cleavage of bilayers by osmotic swelling gives access to a generic toolbox for an asymmetrical modification of the two vis-a-vis standing basal planes of monolayers. Only two simple steps applying arbitrary commercial polycations are needed to obtain such Janus-type monolayers. The generic synthesis route will be applicable to many other layered compounds capable of osmotic swelling, rendering this approach interesting for a variety of materials and applications. |
