The mechanical strength and toughness of engineering materials are often mutually exclusive, posing challenges for material design and selection. To address this, a research team from The Hong Kong ...
The AI-driven framework of optimizing the mechanical property of 2D-PHS. Two-dimensional patterned hollow structures (2D-PHS) are an advanced class of metamaterials known for their unique mechanical ...
US researchers have designed a 2D solar cell based on TMDCs that may exceed by far the efficiency of this device typology, which usually doesn’t exceed 6%. The novelty of this cell consists of its ...
Not all 2D materials are a single atomic layer or an elemental material like graphene (C). These materials offer strong covalent bonds (sharing electron pairs between atoms) that enable the formation ...
