Following the success of ambient-stable two-dimensional (2D) materials such as graphene and hexagonal boron nitride, new classes of chemically reactive layered solids are being explored since their unique properties hold promise for improved device performance [1]. For example, chemically reactive 2D semiconductors (e.g., black phosphorus (BP) and indium selenide (InSe)) have shown enhanced field-effect mobilities under controlled conditions that minimize ambient degradation [2,3]. In addition, 2D boron (i.e., borophene) is an anisotropic metal with a diverse range of theoretically predicted phenomena including confined plasmons, charge density waves, and superconductivity [4], although its high chemical reactivity has limited experimental studies to inert ultrahigh vacuum conditions [5-8]. Therefore, to fully study and exploit the majority of 2D materials, methods for mitigating or exploiting their relatively high chemical reactivity are required [9]. In particular, covalent organic functionalization of BP minimizes ambient degradation, provides charge transfer doping, and enhances field-effect mobility [10]. In contrast, noncovalent organic functionalization of borophene leads to the spontaneous formation of electronically abrupt lateral organic-borophene heterostructures [11]. By combining organic and inorganic encapsulation strategies, even highly chemically reactive 2D materials (e.g., InSe) can be studied and utilized in ambient conditions [12].
