Suspended nanowires are highly favored force sensors. They are built with a very large aspect ratio (up to 5000) with a diameter and length of around 150 nm/100 μm, respectively, and effective masses ...

A different twist: A schematic diagram showing how the method directly visualizes the variations in local twist angles in twisted 2D materials. The new technique revealed pronounced variations in ...

Although the 2D semiconductor transistors keep the promise for future nanoelectronics, their applications are severely limited by the large contact resistance from the Schottky barrier between the ...

A new generation of electronics and optoelectronics may soon be possible by controlling twist angles in a particular type of bilayer 2D material used in these devices, strengthening the intrinsic ...
