There is accelerating R&D into stacking 2-D layers to tailor their properties for specialized applications, Jozwiak said, and MAESTRO is well-suited to measuring the electronic properties of these stacked materials, too.

“We can see a very explicit impact on properties by combining two materials, and we can see how these effects change when we change which materials we’re combining,” he said.

“There is an endless array of possibilities in this world of ‘2-D Legos,’ and now we have another window into these fascinating behaviors.”
