The promising new material molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2) has an inherent issue that’s steeped in irony. The material’s greatest asset—its monolayer thickness—is also its biggest challenge. Monolayer ...

Researchers used their “Campanile” nano-optical probe to make some surprising discoveries about molybdenum disulfide, a member of the “transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) semiconductor family ...

A scientific team has identified previously undiscovered differences in grain boundaries. According to the paper, it is essential to understand the atomic structures of GBs in order to control and ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers of the Center for Photonics and Two-Dimensional Materials at MIPT, together with their colleagues from Spain, Great Britain, Sweden, and Singapore, including co-creator of ...

The technique yields a hybrid material consisting of silica particles tens of micrometers wide speckled with MoS 2 flakes. The material’s blend of photonic and semiconducting properties and high ...

Two-dimensional (2D) materials describe a specific class of nanomaterials that are comprised of only one or two atoms thickness 1. Of one of the most popular 2D materials is graphene, which is a ...

Imagine a world where rooms are lit by their walls, clothes are smartphones and windows turn into video screens. That may seem like a bit of science fiction, but not for long. Researchers at MIT are ...

A team from Singapore and Taiwan have shown that carbon fiber cloths coated in inexpensive catalysts can generate hydrogen, and perform not only in water but in seawater as well. IEEe Spectrum notes, ...

Hydrogen production through water splitting has been considered as a green, pure and high-efficient technique. As an important half-reaction involved, hydrogen evolution reaction is a complex ...
