Advent of two-dimensional (2D) materials owing to their extraordinary properties can revolutionize the field of nano-electronics. Experimental advancements have now made it possible to stack different 2D layers on top of each other to form a single system. Due to van der Waals bonding between the layers, the properties of each layer are not perturbed much. It helps in generating new functionalities for nano-electronics applications. The present paper focuses on the application of van der Waals heterostructure.
