Monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC) became one of the most studied nanostructures in the last decade. Combining two different TMDC monolayers results in a heterostructure whose properties can be individually tuned by the…
Polycrystalline graphene has an inherent tendency to buckle, i.e. develop out-of-plane, three-dimensional structure. A force applied to stretch a piece of polycrystalline graphene influences the out-of-plane structure. Even if the graphene…
