Abstract
This chapter summarizes the preparation, manipulation, and application of inorganic nanosheets, along with a historical review of research into these materials, to serve as a general introduction to the following chapters. Inorganic layered crystals are exfoliated by the incorporation of a large amount of solvent into their interlayer spaces. This phenomenon has been recognized as an extension of intercalation and yields inorganic nanosheets as crystalline and flexible inorganic monolayers. The exfoliated nanosheets can be assembled into a variety of anisotropic nanostructured materials based on their 2D nature. Various aspects of nanosheets, such as their low-dimensionality, thinness, and large surface areas can be applied to develop novel nanosheet-based advanced materials for applications in many fields.
