An automatic flake-search tool for 2D materials

Researchers at the Aachen Graphene & 2D Materials Center have released an open-source platform to automatically identify and classify exfoliated flakes of two-dimensional (2D) materials on a substrate, shortening one of the most time-consuming and tedious tasks in the study of 2D materials.

Exfoliated flakes of hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN) on Si/SiO2 substrate. The red contour indicates a flake with a thickness of about 5 nanometers and size of approximately 50µm x 50µm.
