Penta-graphene is a quasi-two-dimensional carbon allotrope consisting of a pentagonal lattice in which both sp2 and sp3-like carbons are present. Unlike graphene, penta-graphene exhibits a non-zero bandgap, which opens the possibility of…
Graphene is a promising material for the development of applications in nanoelectronic devices, but the lack of a band gap necessitates the search for ways to tune its electronic properties. In addition to doping, defects, and nanoribbons,…
Due to their anisotropy, layered materials are excellent candidates for studying the interplay between the in-plane and out-of-plane entanglement in strongly correlated systems. A relevant example is provided by 1T-TaS2, which exhibits a…
