Assessing quantitative phase reliability in electron ptychography using a twisted trilayer WS2 thickness staircase
Hu Bao, Qilong Feng, Kun Ye +6
The phase of an electron wave is sensitive to the local electrostatic environment and can therefore provide information about atomic-scale structural variations. In electron ptycho…
Breaking the mutual exclusivity between metallicity and ferroelectricity in a non-polar covalent semiconductor via orbital selective doping
Hui Li, Yunfan Yang, Junquan Huang +18
The mutual exclusion of ferroelectricity and metallic conductivity is a long-standing tenet because itinerant electrons screen long-range Coulomb forces that stabilize the bulk pol…
Depositing boron on Cu(111): Borophene or boride?
Xiao-Ji Weng, Jie Bai, Jingyu Hou +7
Large-area single-crystal surface structures were successfully prepared on Cu(111) substrate with boron deposition, which is critical for prospective applications. However, the pro…
Continuous Electrical Manipulation of Magnetic Anisotropy and Spin Flopping in van der Waals Ferromagnetic Devices
Ming Tang, Junwei Huang, Feng Qin +19
Controlling the magnetic anisotropy of ferromagnetic materials plays a key role in magnetic switching devices and spintronic applications. Examples of spin-orbit torque devices wit…
Atomic-Scale Visualization and Manipulation of Domain boundaries in 2D Ferroelectric In2Se3
Fan Zhang, Zhe Wang, Lixuan Liu +4
Domain boundaries in ferroelectric materials exhibit rich and diverse physical properties distinct from their parent materials and have been proposed for novel applications in nano…
Discovery of carbon-based strongest and hardest amorphous material
Shuangshuang Zhang, Zihe Li, Kun Luo +22
Carbon is likely the most fascinating element of the periodic table because of the diversity of its allotropes stemming from its variable (sp, sp2, and sp3) bonding motifs. Explora…
Orthogonal electric control of the out-of-plane field-effect in two-dimensional ferroelectric alpha-In2Se3
Yue Li, Chen Chen, Wei Li +7
Tuning the electric properties of crystalline solids is at the heart of material science and electronics. Generating the electric field-effect via an external voltage is a clean, c…
Direct Observation of Room-Temperature Dislocation Plasticity in Diamond
Anmin Nie, Yeqiang Bu, Junquan Huang +10
It is well known that diamond does not deform plastically at room temperature and usually fails in catastrophic brittle fracture. Here we demonstrate room-temperature dislocation p…
Dislocation Slip or Phase Transformation Lead to Room-Temperature Plasticity in Diamond: Comment on Plastic Deformation of Single-Crystal Diamond Nanopillars
Yeqiang Bu, Peng Wang, Anmin Nie +1
Despite decades of extensive research on mechanical properties of diamond, much remains to be understood in term of plastic deformation mechanisms due to the poor deformability at…
Non-volatile ferroelectric memory effect in ultrathin α-In2Se3
Siyuan Wan, Yue Li, Wei Li +8
Recent experiments on layered α-In2Se3 have confirmed its room-temperature ferroelectricity under ambient condition. This observation renders α-In2Se3 an excellent platform for dev…
