The first-principal simulations are applied to study a photo-induced metastability in amorphous selenium (a-Se) and the contribution of the valence-alteration pair (VAP) defects in this process. The VAP defect is confirmed to be the equilibrium defect; it minimizes the destabilizing interaction between adjacent Se cha…

The superconducting proximity effect has played an important role in recent work searching for Majorana modes in thin semiconductor devices. Using transport measurements to quantify the changes in the semiconductor caused by the proximity effect provides a measure of dynamical processes such as screening and scatterin…

We present a general strategy for enabling reversible shape transformation in semicrystalline shape memory (SM) materials, which integrates three different SM behaviors: conventional one-way SM, two-way reversible SM, and one-way reversible SM. While two-way reversible shape memory (RSM) is observed upon heating and c…

We have performed a systematic first-principles study of the effect of tensile strains on the electronic properties of early transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) monolayers MX 2 (M = Sc, Ti, Zr, Hf, Ta, Cr; X = S, Se, Te). Our density functional theory calculations suggest that the tensile strain can significantly a…

Interactions within natural soils have often been neglected when assessing fate and bioavailability of engineered nanomaterials (ENM) in soils. This review combines patchwise ENM research using natural soils with the much wider literature on ENM performed in standard tests or on the fate of colloids in soils, and an a…
