Strain engineering and photocatalytic application of single-layer ReS$_2$ [PDF]
, 2017 We present a theoretical study on the electronic, dynamical, and photocatalytic properties of single-layer ReS$_2$ under uniaxial and shear strains. The single-layer ReS$_2$ shows strong anisotropic responses to straining.

Crust-mantle decoupling revealed by seismic velocity anisotropy beneath Syowa Station, Antarctica
Antarctic Record, 1997 We analyzed shear wave splittings in the crust beneath Syowa Station, using Moho converted Ps waves. Three set of receiver functions and stacked receiver functions from Tonga events are analyzed.

The origin of shear wave splitting beneath Iceland [PDF]
Geophysical Journal International, 2015 The origin of shear wave splitting (SWS) in the mantle beneath Iceland is examined using numerical models that simulate 3-D mantle flow and the development of seismic anisotropy due to lattice-preferred orientation (LPO). Using the simulated anisotropy structure, we compute synthetic SKS waveforms, invert them for fast polarization directions and split

Low-Frequency Raman Modes and Electronic Excitations In Atomically Thin MoS2 Crystals [PDF]
, 2012 Atomically thin MoS$_{2}$ crystals have been recognized as a quasi-2D semiconductor with remarkable physics properties. This letter reports our Raman scattering measurements on multilayer and monolayer MoS$_{2}$, especially in the low-frequency range ($

Small Shear Wave Splitting Delays Suggest Weak Anisotropy in Cratonic Mantle Lithosphere
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 We use splitting in core‐refracted teleseismic shear waves (SKS, PKS, and similar) to investigate anisotropic properties of the upper mantle beneath the Superior craton in eastern North America and the Yilgarn craton in Western Australia.

A new collective mode in the fractional quantum Hall liquid [PDF]
, 2006 We apply the methods of continuum mechanics to the study of the collective modes of the fractional quantum Hall liquid. Our main result is that at long wavelength there are {\it two} distinct modes of oscillations, while previous theories predicted only {
