The search for new two-dimensional monolayers with diverse electronic properties has attracted growing interest in recent years. Here, we present an approach to construct MA 2 Z 4 monolayers with a septuple-atomic-layer structure, that is, intercalating a MoS 2 -type monolayer MZ 2 into an InSe-type...
