Microgravity-activated high-performance van der Waals InSe ferroelectric semiconductor

This work studies van der Waals InSe crystals grown on China space station. Microgravity growth condition annihilates interlayer stacking-faults in InSe, activates its intrinsic sliding ferroelectricity and enhances the super linear emission property.
