As a much-enriched supplement to the previous review paper entitled the “Effective work
functions for ionic and electronic emissions from mono-and polycrystalline surfaces”[Prog …

Extensive scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy experiments complemented by
first-principles and parametrized tight binding calculations provide a clear answer to the …

Twisted van der Waals (vdW) quantum materials have emerged as a rapidly developing field
of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors. These materials establish a new central research …

Using density functional theory calculations with van der Waals corrections, we investigated
how the interlayer orientation affects the structure and electronic properties of MoS 2 …

The paper presents data on the graphene work function vs. its thickness on Re (10 1¯ 0) in
ultra-high vacuum. Methods are used allowing one to get thermodynamically correct work …

In the past few years, considerable progress has been made on the controlled synthesis of
bilayer van der Waals (vdW) materials such as graphene and transition metal …

To effectively implement wearable systems, their constituent components should be made
stretchable. We successfully fabricated highly efficient stretchable photosensors made of …

The synergic effects of Cu85Ni15 and the copper vapor evaporated from copper foil enabled
the fast growth of a≈ 300 μm bilayer graphene in≈ 10 minutes. The copper vapor reduces …
