Monolayers of layered crystals like graphene and molybdenum disulfide are generally called 2D materials. (Wikipedia). 2. A single, closely packed layer of atoms or molecules. The term floating monolayer is used for certain spread monolayers or films which are in the condensed — often solid — state. (IUPAC). 3.
