By performing ab initio calculations for one- to four-layer black phosphorus within the $GW$ approximation, we obtain a significant difference in the band gap ($\ensuremath{\sim}$1.5 eV), which is in line with recent experimental data. The results are analyzed in terms of the constructed four-band tight-binding model,…

We measure and model the dynamic temperature response of electrocaloric (EC) multilayer capacitors (MLCs) which have been recently highlighted as novel solid-state refrigerators. The MLC temperature responses depend on the operation voltage waveform, thus we consider three types of voltage waveforms, which include squ…

We study the commensurability oscillations in silicene subject to a perpendicular electric field Ez, a weak magnetic field B, and a weak periodic potential V=V0cos(Cy),C=2π/a0 with a0 its period. The field Ez and/or the modulation lift the spin degeneracy of the Landau levels and lead to spin and valley resolved Weiss…

We present a numerical study on the performance of strained graphene-based field-effect transistors. A local strain less than 10% is applied over a central channel region of the graphene to induce the shift of the Dirac point in the channel region along the transverse momentum direction. The left and the right unstrai…

Cross-linking reaction kinetics of ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer initiated with dicumyl peroxide is studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and a cross-linking rheometer. As the degree of cross-linking (α) is less than 0.30, EVA can flow relatively freely because of insufficient cross-linking. As α…
