Edge-Dominated Twist Mechanics at van der Waals Interfaces
Yifan Shao, Zhaoheng Zhang, Hao Li +5
Despite the pivotal role of twist in modulating physical properties at van der Waals (vdW) interfaces, the mechanics governing torsional response remain poorly understood. Here, we…
Chiral Epitaxy: Enantioselective Growth of Chiral Nanowires on Low-Symmetry Two-Dimensional Materials
Noya Ruth Itzhak, Kate Reidy, Maya Levy-Greenberg +20
Chiral crystals exhibit useful handedness-dependent properties, including spin selectivity and circularly polarized light sensitivity, yet controlling which enantiomer forms during…
Polarization Saturation in Multi-layered Interfacial Ferroelectrics
Wei Cao, Swarup Deb, Maayan Vizner Stern +5
Van der Waals (vdW) polytypes of broken inversion and mirror symmetries were recently shown to exhibit switchable electric polarization even at the ultimate two-layer thin limit. T…
Anisotropic Interlayer Force Field for Group-VI Transition Metal Dichalcogenides
Wenwu Jiang, Reut Sofer, Xiang Gao +5
An anisotropic interlayer force field that describes the interlayer interactions in homogeneous and heterogeneous interfaces of group-VI transition metal dichalcogenides (MX2 where…
Spontaneous Electric Polarization in Graphene Polytypes
Simon Salleh Atri, Wei Cao, Bar Alon +8
A crystalline solid is a periodic sequence of identical cells, each containing one or more atoms. If the constituting unit cell is not centrosymmetric, charge may distribute uneven…
Cumulative Polarization Coexisting with Conductivity at Interfacial Ferroelectrics
Swarup Deb, Wei Cao, Noam Raab +7
Ferroelectricity in atomically thin bilayer structures has been recently predicted1 and measured[2-4] in two-dimensional (2D) materials with hexagonal non-centrosymmetric unit-cell…
