      <description>Nanotechnology (IOP): This work demonstrates that mechanical exfoliation induces measurable distortions in the van der Waals (vdW) gap of layered crystals, while the annealing process can reduce this distortion. Using x-ray diffraction, lattice parameters were compared in bulk and mechanically exfoliated flakes of selected transition metal…</description>

      <description>arXiv: Monolayer tin selenide (SnSe) exhibits phase-dependent anharmonic lattice dynamics, yet their consequences for the thermoelectric power factor (PF) and point-defect tolerance remain unresolved. We combine density functional theory, the stochastic self-consistent harmonic approximation (SSCHA), and Boltzmann transport…</description>

      <description>arXiv: The optical response of two-dimensional materials is often significantly impacted by excitonic effects due to the reduced screening of attractive Coulomb interactions in low-dimensional systems. Accurate modeling of exciton formation and real-time dynamics is essential to understanding their ultrafast optical…</description>

      <description>arXiv: In this study, we have investigated and compared the effect of hydrostatic pressure up to ~20 kbar on the transport properties of ZrTe5 single crystals grown by chemical vapor transport (CVT) and flux methods. With the application of pressure, the electrical resistivity Rho(T) and thermopower S(T) of both crystals were…</description>
