Tunable electronic and magnetic properties of two‐dimensional materials and their one‐dimensional derivatives

Low-dimensional materials exhibit many exceptional properties and functionalities which can be efficiently tuned by externally applied force or fields. Here we review the current status of research on tuning the electronic and magnetic properties of low-dimensional carbon, boron nitride, metal-dichalcogenides, phosphorene nanomaterials by applied engineering strain, external electric field and ...

Electronic Supporting Information (ESI) Engineered Water-soluble Two-dimensional Magnetic Nanocomposites: Towards High Magnetic Relaxometric Properties

Electronic properties of Cs-intercalated single- walled carbon nanotubes derived from nuclear magnetic resonance

We report on the electronic properties of Cs-intercalated singlewalled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). A detailed analysis of the 13C and 133Cs nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra reveals an increased metallization of the pristine SWNTs under Cs intercalation. The ‘metallization’ of CsxC materials where x = 0–0.144 is evidenced from the increased local electronic density of states (DOS) n(EF) at...

Structural and electronic properties of lithium intercalated graphite LiC6

We calculate the lattice properties and electronic structure of graphite and LiC6 within the most widely used density-functional theory implementation, the local density approximation ~LDA!. Improvements to the LDA in the form of a generalized gradient approximation ~GGA! are explored. Structural parameters predicted by the LDA, as expected, underestimate experiment within a 1%–2% margin of acc...

Two-Dimensional Transition Metal Dichalcogenide Alloys: Stability and Electronic Properties.

Using density-functional theory calculations, we study the stability and electronic properties of single layers of mixed transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), such as MoS2xSe2(1-x), which can be referred to as two-dimensional (2D) random alloys. We demonstrate that mixed MoS2/MoSe2/MoTe2 compounds are thermodynamically stable at room temperature, so that such materials can be manufactured us...
