Abstract

While magnetism, hyperferroelectricity, and topological phases in the two-dimensional limit have been widely explored, the direct experimental study on bulk photovoltaic effect in 2D materials remains unimplemented. Here, the authors find bulk photovoltaic effect in 2D ferroelectric CuInP2S6.
