Capturing 3D atomic defects and phonon localization at the 2D heterostructure interface
Xuezeng Tian, Xingxu Yan, Georgios Varnavides +9
The 3D local atomic structures and crystal defects at the interfaces of heterostructures control their electronic, magnetic, optical, catalytic and topological quantum properties,…
Revealing the Brønsted-Evans-Polanyi Relation in Halide-Activated Fast MoS2 Growth Towards Millimeter-Sized 2D Crystals
Qingqing Ji, Cong Su, Nannan Mao +7
Achieving large-size two-dimensional (2D) crystals is key to fully exploiting their remarkable functionalities and application potentials. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of…
Covalent 2D CrTe ferromagnet
Mengying Bian, Aleksandr N. Kamenskii, Mengjiao Han +16
To broaden the scope of van der Waals 2D magnets, we report the synthesis and magnetism of covalent 2D magnetic CrTe with a thickness down to one-unit-cell. The 2D CrTe…
Designing Artificial Two-Dimensional Landscapes via Room-Temperature Atomic-Layer Substitution
Yunfan Guo, Yuxuan Lin, Kaichen Xie +21
Manipulating materials with atomic-scale precision is essential for the development of next-generation material design toolbox. Tremendous efforts have been made to advance the com…
Chemical trends of deep levels in van der Waals semiconductors
Penghong Ci, Xuezeng Tian, Jun Kang +11
Properties of semiconductors are largely defined by crystal imperfections including native defects. Van der Waals (vdW) semiconductors, a newly emerged class of materials, are no e…
Determining the three-dimensional atomic structure of a metallic glass
Yao Yang, Jihan Zhou, Fan Zhu +12
Amorphous solids such as glass are ubiquitous in our daily life and have found broad applications ranging from window glass and solar cells to telecommunications and transformer co…
Correlating 3D atomic defects and electronic properties of 2D materials with picometer precision
Xuezeng Tian, Dennis S. Kim, Shize Yang +10
The exceptional electronic, optical and chemical properties of two-dimensional materials strongly depend on the 3D atomic structure and crystal defects. Using Re-doped MoS2 as a mo…
Capturing Nucleation at 4D Atomic Resolution
Jihan Zhou, Yongsoo Yang, Yao Yang +12
Nucleation plays a critical role in many physical and biological phenomena ranging from crystallization, melting and evaporation to the formation of clouds and the initiation of ne…
