Bolstering functionality in multilayer and bilayer WS₂ via focused laser micro-engraving by Chan, Si Min, Poh, Eng Tuan, Leong, Jin Feng, Goh, Johnson Kuan Eng, Sow, Chorng Haur

“…Coupled with the flexible maneuver of the laser, various monolayer designs can be achieved, including micro-antenna, waveguide, and electrode geometries with lateral line widths at 1.5 µm resolution. Furthermore, we also detail the optical properties of the monolayers obtained from laser thinning, with those acquired from multilayers containing more defect-bound excitons, whereas those lasered from bilayers presenting a trion-dominated profile similar to as-grown monolayers. …”

Cationic distribution, exchange interactions, and relaxation dynamics in Zn-diluted MnCo2O4 nanostructures by Tiwari, Nidhi, Pramanik, P., Joshi, D. C., Sarkar, T., Pittala, S., Salman, O. O., Manga, M.-M., Thota, S.

“…The amplitude and peak position in χac(T) decreases with an increase in the DC bias field, which indicates that the spin-glass phase can survive in the presence of low fields forming a critical line with an exponent 2/3. This behavior is similar to the de Almeida-Thouless (AT-line) analysis in the T-H phase diagram which supports the existence of spin-glass like behavior below TF in these Zn diluted spinels.…”
