However, direct and oriented synthesis is challenging due to low formation energies that lead to rapid, uncontrolled growth during solution-based processing. Here, we report the solvent-free growth of oriented n = 1 (PEA)2PbI4 RP films by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). In situ photoluminescence (PL) during deposition reveals the formation of the n = 1 phase at the early stages of growth. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and grazing-incidence wide-angle scattering (GIWAXS) confirm a single oriented n = 1 phase, independent of the substrate. Co-localized spatially resolved PL and AFM further validate the conformal growth. While oriented growth is substrate-independent, film stability is not. (PEA)2PbI4 films grown on strained epitaxial MAPbI3 remain stable for over 184 days without any sign of cation exchange. This work highlights the potential of PLD for direct, room-temperature synthesis of 2D (PEA)2PbI4 RP films and stable 2D/3D heterostructures.","PeriodicalId":19227,"journal":{"name":"npj 2D Materials and Applications","volume":"9 1","pages":"50"},"PeriodicalIF":9.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12162342/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144302595","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One such promising material is TlGaSe2, a 2D-layered, p-type semiconducting ternary chalcogenide. Recent reports show it can be processed as a thin film, opening the door for large-scale commercialization. However, TlGaSe2 is prone to stacking faults along the [001] stacking direction and their role in its thermoelectric properties has not yet been understood. Herein, TlGaSe2 is investigated via (scanning) transmission electron microscopy and first-principles calculations. Stacking faults are found to be present throughout the material, as density functional theory calculations reveal a low stacking fault energy of ~12 mJ m-2. Electron transport calculations show an enhancement of thermoelectric power factors when stacking faults are present. This implies the presence of stacking faults is key to the material's excellent thermoelectric properties along the [001] stacking direction, which can be further enhanced by doping the material to carrier concentrations of ~1019 cm-3.","PeriodicalId":19227,"journal":{"name":"npj 2D Materials and Applications","volume":"9 1","pages":"46"},"PeriodicalIF":9.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12143981/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144248914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While experiments based on Au metal report the origin of NVRS to be extrinsic, caused by the Au atom adsorption into sulfur vacancies, however, more recently molecular dynamics based on reactive forcefield (ReaxFF) suggest that both monolayer and multilayer MoS2 can also host intrinsic non-volatile resistive states whereby an S atom at a monosulfur vacancy (parent state) pops into the molybdenum plane (popped state) under applied out-of-plane electric field. Our rigorous computations based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) and M3GNet (deep learned forcefield) to carry out structural relaxations and molecular dynamics reveal that such a popped state is unstable and does not represent any intrinsic non-volatile resistive state. This is in contrast with the ReaxFF used in previous studies which inaccurately describes the Potential Energy Surface (PES) of MoS2 around the popped state. More importantly, Au atom adsorbed at a sulfur vacancy in MoS2 atomristors represents a stable non-volatile resistive state which is in excellent agreement with earlier experiment. Furthermore, it is observed that the local heating generated around the adsorbed Au atom in low resistive state leads to cycle-to-cycle variability in MoS2 atomristors.","PeriodicalId":19227,"journal":{"name":"npj 2D Materials and Applications","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":9.1,"publicationDate":"2024-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.nature.com/articles/s41699-024-00518-0.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142789397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our results shows that 2D Janus MoSH monolayer exhibits excellent structural stability and electronic properties, which are essential for efficient electrocatalysis. We find that the charge transfer mechanism between Mo and S atoms plays a crucial role in the electrocatalytic activity of 2D Janus MoSH monolayer. Due to the asymmetric structure of MoSH monolayer, it has intrinsic electric field with dipole moment of 0.24 D. Moreover, we demonstrate that 2D Janus MoSH monolayer exhibits high catalytic activity for both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) with overpotential 0.04 V and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) with overpotential 0.11 V, making it a promising candidate for overall water splitting. Our findings have significant implications for the design and optimization of 2D monolayered materials for renewable energy production. By providing insights into the underlying mechanisms of HER and OER on 2D Janus MoSH monolayer, our study paves the way for the development of efficient and sustainable electrocatalysts for water splitting. We hope that current work will be helpful in understanding the electrocatalytic mechanism of 2D Janus MoSH monolayer and its potential applications in renewable energy production.","PeriodicalId":19227,"journal":{"name":"npj 2D Materials and Applications","volume":" ","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":9.1,"publicationDate":"2024-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.nature.com/articles/s41699-024-00516-2.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142714751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
