Two-dimensional (2D) materials offer several unique advantages for high-performance light detection including fast response, high , broadband response and relatively low noise levels. 2D materials integrated often use chemical vapor deposition grown materials, which despite their good quality are relatively high cost and not easily . 2D materials based inks, fabricated through liquid phase exfoliation of bulk crystals, are attractive alternatives due to their low cost, ease of processing and production. Combined with these advantages, mature printing methods available for 2D inks allow large scale electronic device fabrication for a variety of high performance applications including energy storage, solar cells, , etc. In this review, we summarize production of 2D materials based inks, their printing methods, and applications for high performance .
