Fig. 2. Characterization of the synthesized 2D-nanosheets. (a) AFM image indicates the formation of 2D-nanosheets without any visible aggregation. (b) Height profile diagram indicates the formation of a single layered material. (c and d) TEM and HRTEM analyses indicate the formation of a 2D-material with amorphous nature. (e) Powder X-ray diffraction (p-XRD) pattern of TBHBA (red line) and synthesized 2D nanosheets (blue line).
