Abstract
Disclosed is a substantially flat nanosheet with a first side and a second side, the first side having substantially different properties than the second side. The nanosheet may have self-assembly properties under certain anisotropic conditions such as phase separation boundaries, sheer stresses, friction, temperature gradients, viscosity, density, and/or combinations therein.

A composition of matter consisting of a three dimensional object in a form of a layered nanosheet with one dimension less than 100 nanometers, and second and third dimensions greater than 100 nanometers, wherein the layered nanosheet is unbounded to surrounding objects, and wherein the layered nanosheet consists of a first layer having a first property;
- wherein the first layer comprises a first composition of matter including magnesium oxide, and wherein the first property comprises a first surface termination;
- a second layer having a second property, wherein the first property being different than the second property, the second layer comprises a second composition of matter different than the first composition of matter the second composition of matter includes tetrahedral silica, and the second property comprises a second surface termination different than the first surface termination.
