Employing density functional theory--based methods, we investigate monolayer and bilayer structures of hexagonal ${\mathrm{SnS}}_{2}$, which is a recently synthesized monolayer metal dichalcogenide. Comparison of the $1H$ and $1T$ phases of monolayer ${\mathrm{SnS}}_{2}$ confirms the ground state to be the $1T$ phase.…

In the present work, silver nanoparticles were in situ-generated in cellulose matrix using Ocimum sanctum leaf extract as a reducing agent. Regenerated wet cellulose films were first immersed in O. sanctum leaf extract and then it was allowed to diffuse into the films. The leaf extract–diffused wet films were dipped i…

Excitation of the collinear compensated antiferromagnet DyFeO_{3} with a single 60 fs laser pulse triggers a phase transition across the Morin point into a noncollinear spin state with a net magnetization. Time-resolved imaging of the magnetization dynamics of this process reveals that the pulse first excites the spin…
