Strain-engineered S-HfSe₂ monolayer as a promising gas sensor for detecting NH₃: A first-principles study

The development of high-performance gas sensing materials is one of the development trends of new gas sensor technology. In this work, in order to predict the gas-sensitive characteristics of HfSe₂ and its potential as a gas-sensitive material, the interactions of nonmetallic element (O, S, Te) doped HfSe₂ monolayer and...

Effects of Defect and Temperature on the Mechanical Performance of WS₂: A Multiscale Analysis

This paper analyzes the mechanical properties of tungsten disulfide (WS2) by means of multiscale simulation, including density functional theory (DFT), molecular dynamic (MD) analysis, and finite element analysis (FEA). We first conducted MD analysis to calculate the mechanical properties (i.e., Young's modulus and critical stress) of WS2....
