Thermal Phase‐Modulation of Thickness‐Dependent CVD‐Grown 2D In2Se3

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A comprehensive study of CVD‐grown 2D In2Se3 reveals a distinct thickness‐dependent phase landscape and a reversible, thermally driven transformation between β″ and β* variants. In situ TEM electron diffraction and Raman spectroscopy reveal structural dynamics, while the structural invariance of the α‐phase in ultrathin regimes highlights its stability—
