Viscoelastic bandgap in multilayers of inorganic–organic nanolayer interfaces

Abstract Incorporating molecular nanolayers (MNLs) at inorganic interfaces offers promise for reaping unusual enhancements in fracture energy, thermal and electrical transport. Here, we reveal that multilayering MNL-bonded inorganic interfaces can result in viscoelastic damping bandgaps. Molecular d...
