Moiré-induced lattice reconstruction at buried atomic interfaces

Nicholas Clark, Frederick Allars, Isaac Soltero +18

Atomic reconstruction at twisted two-dimensional interfaces governs many of their emergent optical, electronic, and mechanical properties, including sliding ferroelectricity. Despi…

Atomic-resolution imaging of gold species at organic liquid-solid interfaces

Sam Sullivan-Allsop, Nick Clark, Wendong Wang +26

Understanding solid-liquid interfaces at the atomic-scale is key to improved performance of heterogeneous catalysts, electrodes and membranes. Here we combine unique specimen desig…

Atomic imaging of 2D transition metal dihalides

Wendong Wang, Gareth R. M Tainton, Nick Clark +14

Transition metal di-iodides such as FeI2, NiI2 and CoI2 are an emerging class of 2D magnets exhibiting rich and diverse magnetic behaviour, but their study at the monolayer limit h…

One-step synthesis of graphene containing topological defects

Benedikt P. Klein, Matthew A. Stoodley, Joel Deyerling +20

Chemical vapour deposition enables large-domain growth of ideal graphene, yet many applications of graphene require the controlled inclusion of specific defects. We present a one-s…

Tracking single atoms in a liquid environment

Nicholas Clark, Daniel J. Kelly, Mingwei Zhou +7

The chemical behaviour of single metal atoms largely depends on the local coordination environment, including interactions with the substrate and with the surrounding gas or liquid…

Ion exchange in atomically thin clays and micas

Yi-Chao Zou, Lucas Mogg, Nick Clark +13

Clays and micas are receiving attention as materials that, in their atomically thin form, could allow for novel proton conductive, ion selective, osmotic power generation, or solve…

Enhanced superconductivity in few-layer TaS due to healing by oxygenation

J. Bekaert, E. Khestanova, D. G. Hopkinson +15

When approaching the atomically thin limit, defects and disorder play an increasingly important role in the properties of two-dimensional materials. Superconductivity is generally…

Infrared-to-violet tunable optical activity in atomic films of GaSe, InSe, and their heterostructures

Daniel J. Terry, Viktor Zólyomi, Matthew Hamer +11

Two-dimensional semiconductors - atomic layers of materials with covalent intra-layer bonding and weak (van der Waals or quadrupole) coupling between the layers - are a new class o…
