Abstract: Recent molecular dynamics simulations have shown that an inhomogeneous strain field in a substrate could drive nano-objects to move on its surface. A theoretical model is established in this paper in order to find the… read more here.

Abstract: We study the effect of inhomogeneous strain on transition-metal dichalcogenides with a large intrinsic gap in their spectrum. It is found that, by tuning the chemical potential, superconductivity can preserve within the strain-induced discrete pseudo… read more here.
