TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present recent advances in the study of phosphorene and its derivatives (nanoribbons, nanotubes, fullerenes, and heterostructures) with special emphasis on structures, morphologies, properties (electronic, optical, magnetic, thermal, mechanical), and applications (transistors, phonon detectors, digital circuits, sensors, thermoelectric materials, Li-ion batteries).

TL;DR: Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are layered materials with strong in-plane ionic-covalent bonds and weak out-of-plane van der Waals interactions, enabling formation of various nanostructures, such as nanotubes, nanoribbons, nanoflakes, and fullerene-like nanoparticles as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: It was found that the energy relaxation of PNRs leads to the noticeable changes in edge atomic configurations, and the tensile edge stresses along ZZ and AC edges are able to cause distortion in freestanding phosphorene nanoribbons.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of size and shape of a superficial or internal notch on the strength and failure mechanism of CuZr metallic glass (MG) under tensile loading were investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed large-scale molecular dynamics simulations on diamond-like carbon to study wear mechanism and Archard's law at the nanoscale and found that material loss during sliding varies linearly with normal load and sliding distance.
