Two-dimensional materials are substances with a thickness of a few nanometres or less. Electrons in these materials are free to move in the two-dimensional plane, but their restricted motion in ...
At the same time, this "hidden" honeycomb motif equips indenene with a much larger bandgap, upgrading it to a superior quantum spin Hall system. (Image: ct.qmat) As a conceptual material, indenene has ...
2-dimensional materials have been successfully assembled into devices with the smallest possible man made holes for water desalination. Researchers at the National Graphene Institute (NGI) at The ...
In recent years, topological materials have been studied extensively. A typical example of a topological material is a topological insulator, which is a unique insulator that does not conduct ...
