Two-dimensional hexagons with thicknesses ranging from 0.05 to 5 mu m and lateral sizes ranging from 0.5 to 150 mu m are successfully produced at the 1800-1950 degrees C temperature range. It was shown that the formation of 2D hexagons occurs through carbonaceous phases of aluminum involving aluminum carbide (Al4C3) and carbonitrides (AlCxN1-x).
