We report the influence of uniaxial tensile mechanical strain in the range 0–2.2% on the
phonon spectra and bandstructures of monolayer and bilayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) …

In conventional photovoltaic solar cells, photogenerated carriers are extracted by the built-in
electric field of a semiconductor PN junction, defined by ionic dopants. In atomically thin …

Dirac materials are characterized by the emergence of massless quasiparticles in their low-
energy excitation spectrum that obey the Dirac Hamiltonian. Known examples of Dirac …
