TEM and AFM images for the growth of steps and surfaces for MABiCl. (a) TEM image obtained for MABiCl sample indicating layered growth of 2D layers, (b) AFM image of the layered 2D structure, (c) HRTEM lattice image indicating steps between terraces for the growth 2D layered raspberry surface and (d) a schematic view of the atomic arrangements indicating formation of layers and steps. Both TEM and AFM images were obtained on day 3 since the sample was drop-casted.
