Nanoscale mechanics and ultralow Friction of natural 2D silicates: Biotite and Rhodonite
Surbhi Slathia, Manoj Tripathi, Raphael Benjamim de Oliveira +12
Two-dimensional (2D) silicates have emerged as a promising class of ultrathin materials, expanding the landscape of 2D systems beyond conventional van der Waals crystals. Their uni…
Sub-nm Curvature Unlocks Quantum Flexoelectricity in Graphene
Sathvik Ajay Iyengar, James G. McHugh, Jonathan P. Salvage +5
Flexoelectricity, polarization induced by strain gradients, is especially pronounced in two-dimensional (2D) materials due to their mechanical flexibility and sensitivity to mechan…
Strain distribution in WS2 monolayers detected through Polarization-resolved Second Harmonic Generation
George Kourmoulakis, Sotiris Psilodimitrakopoulos, George Miltos Maragkakis +9
Two-dimensional (2D) graphene and graphene-related materials (GRMs) show great promise for future electronic devices. Nevertheless, GRMs result distinct properties under the influe…
Thickness dependent mechanical properties of soft ferromagnetic two-dimensional CoTe2
Surbhi Slathia, Cencen Wei, Manoj Tripathi +7
Two dimensional (2D) layered transition-metal-based tellurides (chalcogens) are known to harness their surface atoms characteristics to enhance topographical activities for energy…
