The discovery of 2D layered MoSi2N4 and WSi2N4 without knowing their 3D parents by
chemical vapor deposition in 2020 has stimulated extensive studies of 2D MA2Z4 system …

By virtue of their complete spin polarization at the Fermi level, two-dimensional (2D)
magnetic half-metallic materials are emerging as one of the latest wonder building blocks for …

Recently synthesized MoSi2N4 is the first septuple-layer two-dimensional material, which
does not naturally occur as a layered crystal, and has been obtained with chemical vapour …

Van de Waals heterostructure (VDWH) is an emerging strategy to engineer the electronic
properties of two-dimensional (2D) material systems. Motivated by the recent discovery of …

Following the successful synthesis of single-layer metallic Janus MoSH and semiconducting
MoSi2N4, we investigate the electronic and interfacial features of metal/semiconductor …

MA2Z4 monolayers form a new class of hexagonal non‐centrosymmetric materials hosting
extraordinary spin‐valley physics. While only two compounds (MoSi2N4 and WSi2N4) are …

We discuss and examine the stability, electronic properties, and transport characteristics of
asymmetric monolayers XWGeN2 (X= O, S, Se, Te) using ab initio density functional theory …

Constructing van der Waals heterostructures from layered materials can form new
optoelectronic devices with superior performance to the individual monolayers. Here, we …

First-principles calculations are performed to study the structural stability and spintronics
properties of Janus MoGeSiP 2 As 2 and WGeSiP 2 As 2 monolayers. The high cohesive …

Catalytically active sites at the basal plane of two-dimensional monolayers for hydrogen
evolution reaction (HER) are important for the mass production of hydrogen. The structural …
