Journal ArticleDOI
Vapour phase growth and grain boundary structure of molybdenum disulphide atomic layers
Sina Najmaei,Zheng Liu,Wu Zhou,Wu Zhou,Xiaolong Zou,Gang Shi,Sidong Lei,Boris I. Yakobson,Juan Carlos Idrobo,Pulickel M. Ajayan,Jun Lou +10 more
TL;DR: The controlled vapour phase synthesis of molybdenum disulphide atomic layers is reported and a fundamental mechanism for the nucleation, growth, and grain boundary formation in its crystalline monolayers is elucidated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Load transfer in carbon nanotube epoxy composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanical behavior of multi-walled carbon nanotube/epoxy composites was studied in both tension and compression, and it was found that the compression modulus is higher than the tensile modulus, indicating that load transfer to the nanotubes in the composite is much higher in compression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-area vapor-phase growth and characterization of MoS(2) atomic layers on a SiO(2) substrate.
TL;DR: The large-scale synthesis of an atomic-layered semiconductor directly on a dielectric layer paves the way for many facile device fabrication possibilities, expanding the important family of useful mono- or few-layer materials that possess exceptional properties, such as graphene and hexagonal boron nitride.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis Of Nitrogen-Doped Graphene Films For Lithium Battery Application
Arava Leela Mohana Reddy,Anchal Srivastava,Sanketh R. Gowda,Hemtej Gullapalli,Madan Dubey,Pulickel M. Ajayan +5 more
TL;DR: A controlled growth of nitrogen-doped graphene layers by liquid precursor based chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique is demonstrated, making this a feasible and efficient process for integration into current battery manufacture technology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aligned Carbon Nanotube Arrays Formed by Cutting a Polymer Resin—Nanotube Composite
TL;DR: The results demonstrate the nature of rheology, on nanometer scales, in composite media and flow-induced anisotropy produced by the cutting process and suggest that nanotubes have excellent mechanical properties.
