The effects of stacking mode and thickness on the frictional behaviour of multilayer silicene

Understanding the contact behaviour of 2D materials in nanoscale is of great importance for their applications. In the present work, molecular dynamics simulation is employed to study the frictional…

Bending moduli for forty-four select atomic monolayers from first principles

Bending moduli generally increase with thickness of the monolayer, while spanning three orders of magnitude between the different materials, and are prone to a higher degree of anisotropy relative to those with a rectangular lattice.

Bending moduli for thirty-two select atomic monolayers from first principles

We calculate bending moduli along the principal directions for thirty-two select atomic monolayers using ab initio Density Functional Theory (DFT). Specifically, considering representative materials…
