    The anvils squeezed metals atomically thin

    Researchers have made atomically flat metals that are ultrathin and could be used to make electronics. In a video, researchers use an anvil to squeeze copper, which is heated in a furnace, before hammering and squeezing on top of it. The researchers used sapphire, which is very hard, and coated it in molybdenum disulfide which…
