Generally, cracking occurs for many reasons connected to uncertainties and to the non-
uniformity resulting from intrinsic deficiencies in materials or the non-linearity of applied …

Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals materials are both highly deformable atomic
membranes and electrically active quantum materials. Most electronic and quantum states in …

Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors are promising for next-generation electronics that are
lightweight, flexible, and stretchable. Achieving stretchability with suppressed crack …

This paper describes an approach to generate hierarchical wrinkles in two-dimensional (2D)
electronic materials with spatial control over adjacent wavelengths. A rigid fluoropolymer …

In the era of hyperconnected contemporary society, hardware and information security
become more dependent on advanced cryptographic primitives. A physically unclonable …

Cracks are typically associated with the failure of materials. However, cracks can also be
used to create periodic patterns on the surfaces of materials, as observed in the skin of …

Abstract 1D graphene based flexible sensors as wearable electronics have recently
attracted considerable attentions because of lightweight, high extensibility, easy to wind and …

Human motion detection needs sensors with flexibility, high sensitivity and linearity.
However, conventional strain sensors are rigid and not suitable for human motion detection …

Atomically thin 2D materials exhibit strong intralayer covalent bonding and weak interlayer
van der Waals interactions, offering unique high in-plane strength and out-of-plane flexibility …

Diatom frustules can exhibit multiple unique properties owing to their multidimensional and
hierarchical pore structures. Herein, we report on the growth of transition metal …
