Two-dimensional (2D) materials are atomically thin substances, whose family has grown appreciably since the first discovery of graphene. They exhibit exceptional properties, governed by quantum confinement in the out-of-plane direction, naturally passivated surfaces, and/or huge suface-to-volume ratio, etc. Past years have seen worldwide interest in 2D mateials and also great efforts devoted to integrating them into fundamental sciences and engineering technologies.

The atomic layer deposition (ALD) technique has been widely used and explored in numerous fields such as microelectronics, photoelectronics, optical coating, functional nanomaterials, MEMS/NEMS, energy storage, biotechnology, catalysis technology and etc. This is attributed to some unique advantages of ALD, including precise control of nano-scale thickness, superior uniformity across a large area, excellent conformity, relatively low deposition temperature and stoichiometric composition. This collection is focused on recent progresses in ALD-related research. The scope includes both theoretical and experimental investigations related to basic principle and practical application of ALD. The future direction is also discussed.

Metal halide perovskite materials have gained much attention in the past years because of their high efficiency, low cost and the ease with which these materials can be made solution processable. These properties strongly suggest a huge potential of this class of materials for optoelectronic applications. This thematic series aims to demonstrate the recent research findings in perovskite materials and devices, particularly those incorporated with nanomaterials or nanostructures.
