Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors, in particular transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), have attracted great interest in extending Moore's law beyond silicon 1-3 . However, despite extensive efforts 4-25 , the growth of wafer-scale TMDC single crystals on scalable and industry-compatible substr...

A family of 2D transition metal carbides and nitrides known as MXenes has received increasing attention since the discovery of Ti 3 C 2 in 2011. To date, about 30 different MXenes with well‐defined structures and properties have been synthesized, and many more are theoretically predicted to exist. D...

The development of next-generation electronics requires scaling of channel material thickness down to the two-dimensional limit while maintaining ultralow contact resistance 1,2 . Transition-metal dichalcogenides can sustain transistor scaling to the end of roadmap, but despite a myriad of efforts, ...

The application of graphene‐based membranes is hindered by their poor stability under practical hydrodynamic conditions. Here, nanocarbon architectures are designed by intercalating surface‐functionalized, small‐diameter, multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) into reduced graphene oxide (rGO) sheet...

Doping of low-dimensional graphitic materials, including graphene, graphene quantum dots and single-wall carbon nanotubes with nitrogen, sulfur or boron can significantly change their properties. We report that simple fluorination followed by annealing in a dopant source can superdope low-dimensiona...

The thermal stability in air of graphene synthesized by either chemical vapor deposition or mechanical cleavage is studied. It is found that single layer graphene prepared by both methods starts to show defects at ~500 °C, indicated by the appearance of a disorder‐induced Raman D peak. The defects a...

Recently, a new two-dimensional allotrope of carbon (biphenylene) was experimentally synthesized. Using first-principles calculations, we systematically investigated the structural, mechanical, electronic, and HER properties of biphenylene. A large cohesive energy, absence of imaginary phonon freque...

In recent days, study of topological Weyl semimetals have become an active branch of physics and materials science because they led to realization of the Weyl fermions and exhibited protected Fermi arc surface states. Therefore, topological Weyl semimetals TaX (X = P, As) are important electronic sy...

Nitrogen-doped porous carbon is obtained by KOH activation of C60 in an ammonia atmosphere. As an anode for Li-ion batteries, it shows a reversible capacity of up to ≈1900 mA h g−1 at 100 mA g−1. Simulations suggest that the superior Li-ion storage may be related to the curvature of the graphenes an...
