This book summarizes the current knowledge of two-dimensional oxide
materials. The fundamental properties of 2-D oxide systems are
explored in terms of atomic structure, electronic behavior and
surface chemistry. The concept of polarity in determining the
stability of 2-D oxide layers is examined, charge transfer effects
in ultrathin oxide films are reviewed as well as the role of
defects in 2-D oxide films. The novel structure concepts that apply
in oxide systems of low dimensionality are addressed, and a chapter
giving an overview of state-of-the-art theoretical methods for
electronic structure determination of nanostructured oxides is
included. Special emphasis is given to a balanced view from the
experimental and the theoretical side. Two-dimensional materials,
and 2-D oxides in particular, have outstanding behavior due to
dimensionality and proximity effects. Several chapters treat
prototypical model systems as illustrative examples to discuss the
peculiar physical and chemical properties of 2-D oxide systems. The
chapters are written by renowned experts in the field.
