Janus-induced atomic reconstruction amplifies twist-angle modulation of interlayer thermal transport in moiré bilayers
Bin Xu, Rulei Guo, Jie Sun +8
In two-dimensional moiré bilayers, atomic reconstruction, the spontaneous structural relaxation toward energy-minimizing stacking registries in the near-commensurate regime, can s…
Structures of iron and cobalt bimetallic clusters for optimized chemical vapor deposition growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes
Qingmei Hu, Daniel Hedman, Ya Feng +17
We investigate iron-cobalt (Fe-Co) alloys as a representative high-performance catalyst system for SWCNT growth in a systematic manner by combining chemical vapor deposition (CVD)…
Analysis of Fe and Co binary catalysts in chemical vapor deposition growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes
Qingmei Hu, Ya Feng, Wanyu Dai +17
Metal catalysts play a pivotal role in the growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), with binary metallic catalysts emerging as an efficient SWCNT synthesis strategy. Amon…
Low-Temperature Synthesis of Weakly Confined Carbyne inside Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes
Bo-Wen Zhang, Xi-Yang Qiu, Yicheng Ma +16
Carbyne, a one-dimensional (1D) carbon allotrope with alternating triple and single bonds, has the highest known mechanical strength but is unstable to bending, limiting synthesis…
