Structure and growth of a hexagonal two-dimensional ice

With the support by the National Natural Science Foundation of China,Ministry of Science and Technology of China,Chinese Academy of Sciences,and Collaborative Innovation Center of Quantum Matter,the teams led by Prof.Jiang Ying(江颖)at the International Center For Quantum Materials,Peking university,successfully grew a 2Dbilayer hexagonal ice(named"2Dice I")and imaged the 2Dice growth at the edges with atomic resolution.This work was published in Nature on January 2,2020.
