2H-NbO₂—a novel van der Waals oxide synthesized by researchers from Japan—exhibits strongly correlated electronic properties with two-dimensional flexibility. By chemically extracting lithium ions ...

Transition-metal tellurides (TMTs) are a class of materials that exhibit exotic quantum phenomena when formed into sheets of nanometre-scale thickness. They have considerable potential as active ...

This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 9 - Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure. Two-dimensional (2D) materials and their heterostructures have been widely explored for ...

Two-dimensional (2D) materials promise revolutionary advances in electronics and photonics, but many of the most interesting candidates degrade within seconds of air exposure, making them nearly ...

After dominating the electronics industry for decades, conventional silicon-based transistors are gradually approaching their limits, which is preventing engineers from further reducing their size ...

The demand for high-performance, energy-efficient computing hardware is growing rapidly, particularly in fields such as artificial intelligence and neuromorphic computing. Researchers have now ...

An international team of physicists has made a significant observation of the BKT phase transition in a 2D dipolar gas of ultracold atoms. This groundbreaking work marks a major milestone in ...

More than 40 stoichiometric MXene compositions and dozens of solid solutions and structures with various terminations have been reported since the first report on Ti3C2Tx in 2011 [1]. The number of ...
