Porous materials are widely used for gas storage, separation, catalysis, and environmental purification. Their functionality arises from nanoscale pores that allow molecules to be selectively captured ...
Two-dimensional (2D) materials, which are only a few atoms thick, are known to exhibit unique electrical, mechanical and optical properties, which differ considerably from the properties of bulk ...
Certain two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals-bonded bilayers (e.g., WTe₂ and h-BN) exhibit “sliding ferroelectricity (SF),” where electric polarization arises from specific stacking configurations ...
