Sonochemically Boosted Hydrogen Evolution Activity of Janus TMD Monolayers
Rayantan Sadhukhan, Md Tarik Hossain, Julian Picker +5
2D electrocatalysts that enable hydrogen evolution at low overpotentials offer an attractive alternative to expensive platinum-based systems. Here, we report the growth of Janus tr…
Atomic-Scale Detection of Néel Vector Switching in the Single-Layer A-type Antiferromagnet Cr2S3-2D
Affan Safeer, Calisa Dias, Mahdi Ghorbani-Asl +9
The detection of Néel vector switching in a single-layer A-type antiferromagnet marks an important step toward functional two-dimensional spintronics. Here, CrS-2D, grown…
Robust phonon engineering and symmetry-selective lattice dynamics in CrSBrCl
Satyam Sahu, Arsalan Hashemi, Mahdi Ghorbani-Asl +9
Atomic substitution provides a controlled route to engineer lattice dynamics in low-symmetry two-dimensional materials. Here, by combining polarization-resolved Raman spectroscopy…
Stabilisation of hBN/SiC Heterostructures with Vacancies and Transition-Metal Atoms
Arsalan Hashemi, Nima Ghafari Cherati, Sadegh Ghaderzadeh +3
When two-dimensional atomic layers of different materials are brought into close proximity to form van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures, interactions between adjacent layers signif…
Which chromium-sulfur compounds exist as 2D material?
Affan Safeer, Mahdi Ghorbani-Asl, Wouter Jolie +3
Two-dimensional (2D) chromium-sulfides are synthesized by molecular beam epitaxy using graphene as a substrate. Structure characterization by employing scanning tunneling microscop…
Defect migration and phase transformations in 2D iron chloride inside bilayer graphene
Qiunan Liu, Haiming Sun, Yung-Chang Lin +7
The intercalation of metal chlorides, and particularly iron chlorides, into graphitic carbon structures has recently received lots of attention, as it can not only protect this two…
