Capping layer enabled controlled fragmentation of two-dimensional materials by cold drawing by Chen, Ming, Li, Dong, Hou, Yuxin, Gu, Mengxi, Zeng, Qingsheng, Ning, De, Li, Weimin, Zheng, Xue, Shao, Yan, Wang, Zhixun, Xia, Juan, Yang, Chunlei, Wei, Lei, Gao, Huajian

“…Compared to the abundant phenomenological results from experiments, however, the underlying mechanisms of this technique are not fully explored. Here, supported by experimental investigation, finite element calculations, and theoretical modeling, we systematically study the effect of a capping layer on the controlled fragmentation of 2D materials deposited on polymer substrates during the cold drawing. …”
