The composition dependence of the structural transition between the monoclinic 1T$^{\prime}$ and orthorhombic T$_{d}$ phases in the Mo$_{1-x}$W$_{x}$Te$_{2}$ Weyl semimetal was investigated by elastic neutron scattering on single crystals…
The properties of pristine, free-standing graphene monolayers prepared by mechanical exfoliation of graphite are investigated. The graphene monolayers, suspended over open trenches, are examined by means of spatially resolved Raman…
Using a diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) technique, we calculated the phase diagrams of $^4$He and H$_2$ adsorbed on a single (5,5) carbon nanotube, one of the narrowest that can be obtained experimentally. For a single monolayer, when the…
In cell extrusion, a cell embedded in an epithelial monolayer loses its apical or basal surface and is subsequently squeezed out of the monolayer by neighboring cells. Cell extrusions occur during apoptosis, epithelial-mesenchymal…
Three Mo-based transition metal dichalcogenides MoS$_2$, MoSe$_2$ and MoTe$_2$ share at ambient conditions the same structure 2H$_c$, consisting of layers where Mo atoms are surrounded by six chalcogen atoms in trigonal prism coordination.…
Charge density waves (CDW) in single-layer 1$T$-MTe$_2$ (M= Nb, Ta) recently raised large attention because of the contrasting structural and physical behavior with the sulfide and selenide analogues. A first-principles study of fourteen…
We have studied on optical second harmonic generations (SHGs) from atomically thin MoTe2 flakes with 2H and 1T' phases. From 2H-MoTe2 samples with odd (even) numbers of layers, strong (negligible) SHGs are observed due to the…
Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers attract great attention due to their specific structural, electronic and mechanical properties. The formation of their lateral heterostructures allows a new degree of flexibility in…
The Raman spectrum of monolayer (ML) MoS$_2$ is remarkably affected by the interaction with metals. In this work we studied ML-MoS$_2$ supported by the Ag(111) and Ag(110) surfaces by using a combined experimental and theoretical approach.…
Thin layers of black phosphorus have recently raised interest for their two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting properties, such as tunable direct bandgap and high carrier mobilities. This lamellar crystal of P atoms stacked together by weak…
Single-layer molybdenum disulfide ($MoS_2$) possesses significant potential for nanoscale optoelectronics, but achieving high-intensity, long-term-stable photoluminescence (PL) emission remains a challenge. In this work, we demonstrate a…
We perform classic molecular dynamics simulations to comparatively investigate the mechanical properties of single-layer MoS2 and a graphene/MoS2/graphene heterostructure under uniaxial tension. We show that the lattice mismatch between…
Understanding the topological aspects of the band structure of solids has fundamentally changed our appreciation of their properties. The layered, van der Waals transition-metal pentatelluride ZrTe$_5$ has proven on numerous occasions to be…
We study the structural, electronic and vibrational properties of single-layer 1TNbSe$_2$ from first principles. Within the generalized gradient approximation, the 1T polytype is highly unstable with respect to the 2H. The DFT+U method…
Molecular dynamics simulations combined with periodic electronic structure calculations are performed to decipher structural, thermodynamical and dynamical properties of the interfaced vs. confined water adsorbed in hexagonal 1D channels of…
Some of the materials are more affected by oxidation than others. To elucidate the oxidation-induced degradation mechanisms in transition metal chalcogenides, the chemical effects in single layer MoS$_2$ and MoTe$_2$ were studied in situ in…
The short-time stability of concentration profiles in coherent periodic multilayers consisting of two components with large miscibility gap is investigated by analysing stationary solutions of the Cahn-Hilliard diffusion equation. The…
Single- and few-layer MoS2 has recently gained attention as an interesting new material system for opto-electronics. Here, we report on scanning Raman measurements on few-layer MoS2 flakes prepared by exfoliation. We observe a Raman mode…
The electronic structure of an atomic-layer-deposited MoS2 monolayer on SiO2 was investigated using X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and synchrotron X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The angle-dependent evolution of the XAS spectra…
The surface a thin-film is attached to and the surrounding monolayer causes geometrical confinement of a interrogated molecule; we look at the base case of a SC$_{18}H_{37}$ in a SC$_{18}H_{37}$ monolayer on Au[111]. Normal mode analysis…
