Janus transition metal dichalcogenides with a built-in structural cross-plane asymmetry have
recently emerged as a new class of two-dimensional materials with a large cross-plane …

In this paper, an irreversible thermionic refrigerator model based on van der Waals
heterostructure with various irreversibilities is established by utilizing combination of non …

We develop analytical models of optical-field-driven electron tunneling from the edge and
surface of free-standing two-dimensional (2D) materials. We discover a universal scaling …
