In materials science, an MXene is a class of low-dimensional inorganic compounds. These materials consist of two-dimensional arrays of transition metal carbide or carbonitride. First described in 2011, MXenes combine the metallic conductivity of transition metal carbides and hydrophilic nature because of their hydroxyl or oxygen terminated surfaces.
Preparation
MXenes are produced by selectively etching out the A element from a MAX phase, which has the general formula Mn+1AXn, where M is an early transition metal, A is an element from group IIIA or IVA of the periodic table, X is C and/or N, and n = 1, 2, or 3. MAX phases have a layered hexagonal structure with P63/mmc symmetry, where M layers are nearly closed packed and X atoms fill octahedral sites. Therefore, Mn+1Xn layers are interleaved with the A element, which is metallically bonded to the M element. MAX phases are etched mainly by using strong etchants such as hydrofluoric acid (HF). Etching of Ti3AlC2 in aqueous HF at room temperature causes the A (Al) atoms to be removed, and the surface of the carbide layers to be terminated by O, OH, and/or F atoms. It has been shown how the higher the value of n in the formula, the more stable the MXene.The following MXenes have been synthesized: Ti3C2, Ti2C, V2C, Nb2C, (Ti0.5,Nb0.5)2C, Ta4C3, (V0.5,Cr0.5)3C2, Ti3CN. Although theoretically possible, nitride-based MXenes have not yet been reported.Cite error: A <ref>

Properties
With a high electron density near the Fermi level, MXene monolayers are predicted to be metallic. In MAX phases, N(EF) is mostly M 3d orbitals, and the valence states below EF are composed of two sub-bands. One, sub-band A, made of hybridized Ti 3d-Al 3p orbitals, is near EF, and another, sub-band B, -10 to -3 eV below EF which is due to hybridized Ti 3d-C 2p and Ti 3d-Al 3s orbitals. Said differently, sub-band A is the source of Ti-Al bonds, while sub-band B is the source of Ti-C bond. Removing A layers causes the Ti 3d states to be redistributed from missing Ti-Al bonds to delocalized Ti-Ti metallic bond states near the Fermi energy in Ti2, therefore N(EF) is 2.5-4.5 times higher for MXenes than MAX phases.
Only bare-surface MXenes are magnetic . Cr2C, Cr2N, and Ta3C2 are ferromagnetic, Ti3C2 and Ti3N2 are antiferromagnetic.
