Interface Symmetry and Electrostatic Stabilization of Strain-Resilient Janus Heterobilayers for Flexible Piezotronics
Surender Kumar, Mostafa Torkashvand, Stefan Velja +1
The electronic structure of conventional two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) is highly sensitive to lattice deformation, often leading to indirect-to-direct ban…
Janus MoSSe/WSSe Heterobilayers as Selective Photocatalysts for Water Splitting
Mostafa Torkashvand, Saeedeh Sarabadani Tafreshi, Caterina Cocchi +1
Identifying materials that simultaneously straddle the water redox potentials and possess an intrinsic electric field is crucial for achieving high solar-to-hydrogen (STH) efficien…
Atomistic Origin of Photoluminescence Quenching in Colloidal MoS2 and WS2 Nanoplatelets
Surender Kumar, Markus Fröhlich, Stefan Velja +8
Large chemical tunability and strong light-matter interactions make colloidal transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) nanostructures particularly suitable for light-emitting applicat…
Edge Magnetism in Colloidal MoS2 Triangular Nanoflakes
Surender Kumar, Stefan Velja, Muhammad Sufyan Ramzan +1
The control of localized magnetic domains at the nanoscale holds great promise for next-generation spintronic applications. Colloidal transition metal dichalcogenides nanostructure…
