Let’s talk about nanotechnology – the scientific equivalent of David taking on Goliath, but with way more chemistry and way fewer slingshots. We’re dealing with a world so small that if an atom were the size of an apple, a nanometer would be about the size of a grain of salt.

Imagine a future where phones are faster, processors are leaner, and you can download an entire season of your favorite show in nanoseconds (okay, we’re still a ways off). But by exploring 2D materials with TERS, scientists could turn this into a reality. The combination of ultra-thin, high-powered chips could not only advance consumer electronics but also unlock new levels of artificial intelligence and quantum computing.
