Atomically Flat Dielectric Patterns for Bandgap Engineering and Lateral Junction Formation in MoSe2 Monolayers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a method to create atomically flat dielectric patterns of SiO2 and AlOx for MoSe2 monolayers, forming lateral heterojunctions with minimal strain. The dielectric pattern modulates excitonic properties, contact potential, and carrier dynamics, demonstrating a tunable approach for enhancing the optoelectronic properties of 2D ...

Material Composition Gradient Controls the Autonomous Opening of Banksia Seed Pods in Fire‐Prone Habitats

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The seed pod valves of Australian Banksia attenuata plants are not simply bi‐layers which bend when dry. These experiments and models reveal complex mechanics, which allow seed release only after several steps of seed pod opening. Stiffness gradients prevent delamination of the valves during loading, and a shape‐memory function protects the seeds ...
