Recently 2D materials are booming in the field of energy, environment, and biomedical application. Incorporation of metal/non-metal within 2D materials significantly influences the physical and chemical properties, making them intriguing materials for various applications. The advancement of 2D material requires strategic modification by manipulating the electronic structure, which remains a challenge. Herein, we describe 2D materials for the environment, energy, and biomedical application. A predominant aim of this short communication is to summarize the literature on the advanced environment, energy, and biomedical application (especially COVID-19).

Two-dimensional (2D) layered semiconductors are current research hotspots on account of their wide variety of applications in electronics and optoelectronics due to their particular ultrathin nature. In this review, the band alignment engineering in heterojunctions composed of 2D van der Waals (vdW) layered semiconductors and their device applications in optoelectronics are provided. Various approaches that induced adjustability of vdW heterojunctions are summarized, mainly including composition and thickness modulations, strain, and electric fields. Furthermore, their perspectives on future developments in optoelectronics and electronics devices based on the newly unique physical and chemical properties are outlined.

Graphene, a typical two-dimensional planar monolayer of sp2carbon atoms, has attracted significant attention due to its outstanding physical and chemical properties. Nowadays, many graphene-based composites have been synthesized. Among them, graphene hydrogels (including graphene oxide hydrogel and reduced graphene oxide hydrogel) as a kind of graphene-based composites have a wide application prospect. In this paper, the progresses of graphene-based hydrogels are reviewed, and the prospects for the development of graphene-based hydrogels are also discussed.

Investigations of variations of physical and chemical properties of clusters as a function of size allow systematic explorations of evolutionary patterns of materials properties from the molecular scale to the condensed phase regimes. Using classical and quantum molecular dynamics simulations we discuss the dynamics of cluster collisions with surfaces leading to shock formation, dielectrons and sodium solvation in water clusters, size-evolutionary patterns of metallization of sodium-fluoride clusters, and the energetics of metal alloy clusters.
