Graphene and MoS 2 are two well-known quasi two-dimensional materials. This review
presents a comparative survey of the complementary lattice dynamical and mechanical …

We present a parameterization of the Stillinger-Weber potential to describe the interatomic
interactions within single-layer MoS 2 (SLMoS 2). The potential parameters are fitted to an …

The synthesis of WS2 inorganic nanotubes (INT) and inorganic fullerene-like (IF) structures
in 1992 signified the opening of a fertile and challenging field of scientific endeavor. These …

Two-dimensional layers of molybdenum disulfide, MoS2, have been recognized as
promising materials for nanoelectronics due to their exceptional electronic and optical …

Research and literature on nanomaterials has exploded in volume in recent years.
Nanotubes (both of carbon and inorganic materials) can be made in a variety of ways. Many …

We report here the results of the first resonance Raman study on single MoS2 and WS2
nanotubes and microtubes synthesized by chemical transport reaction. These multiwall …

The present review provides an overview of the rich polymorphism encountered on different
length scales within the very versatile material class of transition metal chalcogenides. On …

Symmetry based calculations of the polarized optical absorption in single-wall Mo S 2 and
WS 2 nanotubes are presented. Optical conductivity tensor for the individual tubes, using …

Collective excitations including plasmons, magnons, and layer‐breathing vibration modes
emerge at an ultralow frequency (< 1 THz) and are crucial for understanding van der Waals …

Resonance Raman profiles of WS 2 nanotubes of different diameter are presented. We
show that the A excitonic transition energy lies below the bulk value and is increasingly …
