Ferroelectric switching in bilayer 3R MoS2 via interlayer shear mode driven by nonlinear phononics

Measuring Interlayer Shear Stress in Bilayer Graphene.

Monolayer two-dimensional (2D) crystals exhibit a host of intriguing properties, but the most exciting applications may come from stacking them into multilayer structures. Interlayer and interfacial shear interactions could play a crucial role in the performance and reliability of these applications, but little is known about the key parameters controlling shear deformation across the layers an...

V-Shaped switching and interlayer interactions in ferroelectric liquid crystals

Linear electrooptic responses in ferroelectric liquid crystals can be achieved via thresholdless switching. The molecular parameters for the design of ferroelectric liquid crystals that may yield a thresholdless response have not been delineated so far. In this article we explore some of the chemical design features that may be utilised in controlling switching processes, and we develop propert...
