The properties and behavior of these monolayers can be modified by introducing defects, namely defect engineering. In this paper, we review a group of common two-dimensional crystals, including graphene, graphyne, graphdiyne, graphn-yne, silicene, germanene, hexagonal boron nitride monolayers and MoS2 monolayers, focusing on the effect of the defect engineering on these two-dimensional monolayer materials. Defect engineering leads to the discovery of potentially exotic properties that make the field of two-dimensional crystals fertile for future investigations and emerging technological applications with precisely tailored properties. © World Scientific Publishing Company.Funders : # BRBAA08-C-2-0130, DTRA, Defense Threat Reduction Agency; # HDTRA1-13-1-0025, DTRA, Defense Threat Reduction Agency Target : Researchers ; Professionals ; Students ; General public Permalink : http://hdl.handle.net/10993/10209 DOI : 10.1142/S0217984913300172 Framework Programme / European Project : FP7 ; 279578 - REALTCUT - Towards real time multiscale simulation of cutting in non-linear materials with applications to surgical simulation and computer guided surgery
