Abstract

The vast literature on three-dimensional (3D) bulk metal-ammonia solutions1–3 is testimony to the importance of these novel fluids as arenas for the study of the metal-insulator (M-I) problem.4 Since phase transitions such as the M-I transition exhibit marked dependence of the spatial dimensionality of the systems being explored,5 it is obvious that the prospect of studying metal-ammonia solutions in a two-dimensional (2D) environment is an intriguing one.
