The MXene field continues to grow and expand as more research groups begin to study this
fascinating and very large class of 2D materials. While synthesis and applications of …

The M n+ 1 AX n, or MAX, phases are nanolayered, hexagonal, machinable, early transition-
metal carbides and nitrides, where n= 1, 2, or 3, M is an early transition metal, A is an A …

MAX phases are a large family of materials with more than 150 different compositions that
have been extensively investigated during the last 25 years. They present a layered …

In this paper, we systematically proposed the strategy of tailoring strain delocalization to
evade long-standing strength-ductility trade-off dilemma. The scientific contribution is to …

Recent progress in two-dimensional ferroelectrics greatly expands the versatility and
tunability in van der Waals heterostructure based electronics. However, the switching …

In this work, the Ti, Al and graphene flake powders were used as raw materials, and a Ti 2
AlC/TiAl composite with the bioinspired micro-nano laminated architecture was successfully …

Since the early '90s in last century, an interesting combination of metallic and ceramic-like
properties of MAX phases have motivated the development of MAX/metal matrix composites …

Moiré superlattices formed by twisted stacking in van der Waals materials have emerged as
a new platform for exploring the physics of strongly correlated materials and other emergent …

Abstract Zr 2 SB and Hf 2 SB were synthesized via solid-state reactions and the crystal
structures were determined by powder X-ray diffraction. Both compounds crystallize in the …

The anisotropic deformation behavior of single crystals of Ti 3 SiC 2 has been investigated
at room temperature as a function of loading axis orientation and specimen size by …
