The field of topological mechanics has recently emerged due to the interest in robustly transporting various types of energy in a flaw and defect-insensitive fashion. While there have been a significant number of studies based on…
Newly fabricated monolayer phosphorene and its few-layer structures are expected to be promising for electronic and optical applications because of their finite direct band gaps and sizable but anisotropic electronic mobility. By…
The effect of pressure on optical phonon frequencies of MgB$_2$ has been calculated using the frozen-phonon approach based on a pseudopotential method. Gr\"uneisen parameters of the harmonic mode frequencies are reported for the…
Strain engineering allows the physical properties of materials and devices to be widely tailored, as paradigmatically demonstrated by strained transistors and semiconductor lasers employed in consumer electronics. For this reason, its…
Using first principles calculations we showed that the electronic and optical properties of single layer black phosphorus (BP) depend strongly on the applied strain. Due to the strong anisotropic atomic structure of BP, its electronic…
Mechanical resonators with high quality factors are of relevance in precision experiments, ranging from gravitational wave detection and force sensing to quantum optomechanics. Beams and membranes are well known to exhibit flexural modes…

Nanomechanical resonators promise diverse applications ranging from mass spectrometry to quantum information processing, requiring long phonon lifetimes and frequency stability. Although two-level system (TLS) defects govern dissipation at…
Quantum confinement and interference often generate exotic properties in nanostructures. One recent highlight is the experimental indication of a magnetic phase transition in zigzag-edged graphene nanoribbons at the critical ribbon width of…

The identification of the crystalline axis of anisotropic black phosphorus (BP) is key for the study of its physical properties and for its optical and electronic applications. Herein, we show that by applying an in-plane uniaxial strain…
We have studied the mechanical properties and phonon dispersions of fully hydrogenated borophene (borophane) under strains by first principles calculations. Uniaxial tensile strains along the a- and b-direction, respectively, and biaxial…
We study the effect of uniaxial strain on the band structure of ZrSe$_3$, a semiconducting material with a marked in-plane structural anisotropy. By using a modified 3-point bending test apparatus, thin ZrSe$_3$ flakes were subjected to…
An open question in mechanics is whether mechanical resonators can be made nonlinear with vibrations approaching the quantum ground state. This requires engineering a mechanical nonlinearity far beyond what has been realized thus far. Here…
