Multi-Scale Modeling, Design Strategies and Physical Properties of 2D Composite Sheets

Abstract

This reports describes the progress made in the second phase of the project after the PI moved from Brown to the University of Pennsylvania. The breakthrough results obtained are 1) prediction and subsequent experimental observation of strain induced changes in electronic structure of TMD materials 2) Prediction and experimental observation of using defects in 2D materials to enhance charge storage capacity and 3) Tuning the thermal conductivity of 2D materials through defect and strain engineering and 4) Development of multiscale methods to simulate the growth of 2D materials. The work at Penn lead to 12 publications, including papers in Nature Materials, Nature Communications and Nano Letters.
