Black phosphorus (BP), a novel two-dimensional (2D) layered semiconductor material, has
attracted tremendous attention since 2014 due to its prominent carrier mobility, thickness …

Black phosphorus (BP) discovered a century ago constitutes a new class of two-dimensional
(2D) materials and is intensively studied as a 2D semiconductor. The high carrier mobility …

Black phosphorus, which is a relatively rare allotrope of phosphorus, was first discovered by
Bridgman in 1914. Since the advent of two-dimensional (2D) black phosphorus (which is …

Abstract Very recently, two-dimensional (2D) boron sheets (borophene) with rectangular
structures were grown successfully on single crystal Ag (111) substrates (Mannix et al 2015 …

Two-dimensional (2D) materials have attracted growing interest in the past decade because
of their extraordinary properties and great potential in a wide range of applications. Strain is …

After billions of years of evolution, natural materials, such as bamboo, bone, and nacre,
show unique mechanical properties, due to their intrinsic hierarchical micro/nanoscale …

In this paper, the finite element method is utilized to evaluate the behavior of the armchair
phosphorene nanotubes under the compressive loading. The energy equations of the …

Polymer grouting materials are widely used in the field of trenchless rehabilitation of
infrastructure, and their properties are closely related to the crosslinking process and …

In this study, we investigate the mechanical properties of armchair phosphorene nanotubes
using a combination of density functional theory (DFT) and the finite element method (FEM) …

The recently synthesized ultrathin diamond nanothreads (NTHs) exhibit a variety of
intriguing properties and are probably the most successful of many encouraging …
