https://2DMat.ChemDX.org: Experimental data platform for 2D materials from synthesis to physical properties

Abstract

We present a comprehensive data platform for 2D materials research, https://2DMat.ChemDX.org, and a newly constructed 2D database collected through the platform. This platform integrates efficient data management, specialized visualization, and machine learning toolkits, enhancing research productivity. The platform supports data obtained from reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED), photoluminescence (PL), and Raman measurements, providing a robust foundation for uploading, managing, and sharing research data through a web-based platform. Data templates and parsing systems specialized for handling these data help researchers manage large datasets, reduce manual efforts, and enhance data consistency. The platform features powerful analysis tools for RHEED, PL, and Raman spectra, facilitating easy data comprehension with just a few clicks. Additionally, the platform incorporates machine learning toolkits for investigating 2D film growth mechanisms and super-resolution techniques for analyzing PL/Raman mapping data, promising an increase in efficiency. The modular design and the systematic 2D database of our platform enable not only seamless expansion and adaptation but also valuable data collection, management, and utilization in the evolving field of 2D materials. © 2024 RSC.
