The role of moiré graphene superstructures in favoring confined adsorption of different metal
atoms is an intriguing problem not yet completely solved. Graphene (G) grown on Ni (100) …

We apply the band-unfolding approach to explore the dispersions of different types of
photonic quasiperiodic structures, including photonic quasicrystals that have high-rotational …

Hydrogen fuel is one of the most promising, renewable, and carbon-free alternatives to
contaminating fossil fuels that are being used to date. Producing hydrogen by water splitting …

We present a short review of the work we have performed over the last decade in the
framework of a scientific program dedicated to characterizing the structure, formation and …

Epitaxial graphene supported by transition metals with an interface lattice mismatch exhibits
moiré superstructures. Though investigations at the atomic scale have been extensively …

Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors, such as lead selenide (PbSe), locate at the
key position of next-generation devices. However, the ultrathin PbSe is still rarely reported …

Here, a deterministic algorithm is proposed, that is capable of constructing a common
supercell between two similar crystalline surfaces without scanning all possible cases …

Introducing magnetism to topological insulators can produce a variety of interesting
macroscopic quantum phenomena and open new paradigms for energy-efficient and high …

In this experiment, two-dimensional crystal structures with different symmetries were
simulated using metal microspheres. The effect of simulating the lattice constant change of …
