By taking two flakes of special materials that are just one atom thick and twisting them at high angles, researchers at the ...

or 2D, semiconductors,” explains Xie. “These can activate more than one physical parameter, known as a ‘degree of freedom’, giving materials useful properties.” For example, they have ...

Javier Sanchez-Yamagishi, a physicist who studies 2D materials at the University of California, Irvine, likens the ...

Like graphene, MAC is also a 2D or single atom-thick material. But unlike graphene where atoms are arranged in an ordered ⎯ or crystalline ⎯ hexagonal lattice, MAC is a composite material that ...

Researchers show that precisely layering nano-thin materials creates excitons -- essentially, artificial atoms -- that can act as quantum information bits, or qubits.

A team of Chinese researchers has developed a new interfacial synthesis strategy to fabricate high-performance crystalline ...

For example, a second magic angle has been reported at around ... The existence of multiple magic angles adds an extra dimension to the tunability of twisted 2D materials, as each magic angle offers a ...

BEIJING -- Chinese scientists have recently succeeded in creating single-atom-layer metals with a thickness of just one ...

This ubiquitous transfer-induced contamination, along with the variable strain introduced during the transfer process, has been the primary obstacle hindering the development of industrially viable ...
