TL;DR: In this paper, dual topological insulators with nonzero mirror Chern number were shown to possess the properties of both topological and topological crystalline mirror symmetry, and they can be turned into topological nodal-line semimetals by mimicking a magnetic field that keeps the mirror symmetry.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the realization of nonvolatile ferromagnetism in bilayer and showed that the ferromagnetic transformation can be attributed to the competition between orbital-dependent interlayer antiferromagnetic super-super-exchange (OSSE) and ferromagnets.

TL;DR: The thermodynamic stabilities and electronic properties of oxygen vacancies on the SrTiO3 (STO)(001) surface and at the Au/STO(001) interface are systematically investigated by means of first-principles calculations and it is found that the Ov located in the near-surface region of the two surfaces can be divided into three categories according to their properties.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the synthesis of CZTS@SnO 2 nanocomposites via a simple one-pot solvothermal process, which exhibited enhanced photo-response, which could be attributed to the special structures with improved separation of photo-induced charge carriers.

TL;DR: In this paper, the novel electronic properties of the Janus TiClI monolayer (ML) and van der Waals (vdW) bilayers (BLs) have been demonstrated.
