Van der Waals forces control ferroelectric-antiferroelectric ordering in ABP2X6 laminar materials
Jeffrey R. Reimers, Sherif Abdulkader Tawfik, Michael J. Ford
We show how van der Waals (vdW) forces outcompete covalent and ionic forces to control ferroelectric ordering in CuInP2S6 nanoflakes as well as in CuInP2S6 and CuBiP2Se6 crystals.…
van der Waals forces control the internal chemical structure of monolayers within ABP2X6 lamellar materials
Sherif Abdulkader Tawfik, Jeffrey R. Reimers, Catherine Stampfl +1
Following the recent demonstration that van der Waals forces control the ferroelectric ordering of layers within nanoflakes and bulk samples of CuBiP2Se6 and CuInP2S6, it is demons…
Superconductivity in intercalated buckled two-dimensional materials: KGe
Sherif Abdulkader Tawfik, Catherine Stampfl, Michael J. Ford
Germanene has emerged as a novel two-dimensional material with various interesting properties and applications. Here we report the possibility of superconductivity in a stable pota…
Understanding and calibrating Density-Functional-Theory calculations describing the energy and spectroscopy of defect sites in hexagonal boron nitride
Jeffrey R. Reimers, Ali Sajid, Rika Kobayashi +1
Defect states in 2D materials present many possible uses but both experimental and computational characterization of their spectroscopic properties is difficult. We provide and com…
