TL;DR: Theoretical results are consistent with the recent experiments and suggest MoS2 as a potential material for gas sensing application because of its ability to be significantly modulated by a perpendicular electric field.

TL;DR: In this article, the elastic constants and electronic structures of two-dimensional monolayer MoS 2 under elastic strain using the first-principles calculations were analyzed and the in-plane stiffness and Poisson ratio calculated in the harmonic elastic strain range were found to be 123 N/m and 0.25, indicating that monollayer MoS2 is much softer than graphene.

TL;DR: In this article, the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of monolayer MoS2 doped with nonmetal and transition-metal atoms are investigated using first-principles calculations.

TL;DR: The fact that the properties of ReSe2 can be tuned in terms of the number of layers and gas molecule gating, and single-layer Re Se2 with appropriate band-gap is a promising material for future functional device applications is highlighted.

TL;DR: In this article, the mechanical and electronic properties of graphyne and its family under strain were investigated and it was found that the inplane stiffness decreases with increasing the number of acetylenic linkages.
