A Review on Mechanics and Mechanical Properties of 2D Materials - Graphene and Beyond
Deji Akinwande, Christopher J. Brennan, J. Scott Bunch +17
Since the first successful synthesis of graphene just over a decade ago, a variety of two-dimensional (2D) materials (e.g., transition metal-dichalcogenides, hexagonal boron-nitrid…
Earth-abundant and Non-toxic SiX (X=S, Se) Monolayers as Highly Efficient Thermoelectric Materials
Ji-Hui Yang, Qinghong Yuan, Huixiong Deng +2
Current thermoelectric (TE) materials often have low performance or contain less abundant and/or toxic elements, thus limiting their large-scale applications. Therefore, new TE mat…
Self-optimizing layered hydrogen evolution catalyst with high basal-plane activity
Yuanyue Liu, Jingjie Wu, Ken P. Hackenberg +11
Hydrogen is a promising energy carrier and key agent for many industrial chemical processes1. One method for generating hydrogen sustainably is via the hydrogen evolution reaction…
Highly Itinerant Atomic Vacancies in Phosphorene
Yongqing Cai, Qingqing Ke, Gang Zhang +2
Using detailed first-principles calculations, we investigate the hopping rate of vacancies in phosphorene, an emerging elemental 2D material besides graphene. Our work predicts tha…
A MoS2-based capacitive displacement sensor for DNA sequencing
A. Smolyanitsky, B. I. Yakobson, T. A. Wassenaar +2
We propose an aqueous functionalized molybdenum disulfide nanoribbon suspended over a solid electrode as the first capacitive displacement sensor aimed at determining the DNA seque…
High-throughput screening of metal-porphyrin-like graphenes for selective capture of carbon dioxide
Hyeonhu Bae, Minwoo Park, Byungryul Jang +9
Nano-materials, such as metal-organic frameworks, have been considered to capture CO. However, their application has been limited largely because they exhibit poor selectivity…
