Sumario:Miniaturization of the devices in terms of size and the necessity of high speed device performance have created opportunities as well as challenges in the material research community. Nanomaterials like 0D and 2D materials are one of such material choices that can help realize the nanosize and ultrafast devices. However, the growth process of these materials, especially emerging 2D materials, needs to be reviewed in terms of human, animal and environmental toxicity along with the economic cost for synthesizing material. Moreover, the green and sustainable alternatives for minimizing or eliminating the toxicity should also be considered for the commercial scale nanomaterials synthesis and device fabrication. This topic will thus highlight the currently developed 2D materials, their growth process, application prospective, toxicity effect and their possible sustainable alternatives.
