Article Abstract

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) layers are highly promising as field-effect transistor (FET) channels in the atomic-scale limit. However, accomplishing this superiority in scaled-up FETs remains challenging due to their van der Waals (vdW) bonding nature with respect to conventional metal electrodes. Herein, we report a scalable approach to fabricate centimeter-scale all-2D FET arrays of platinum diselenide (PtSe) with in-plane platinum ditelluride (PtTe) edge contacts, mitigating the aforementioned challenges. We realized a reversible transition between semiconducting PtSe and metallic PtTe via a low-temperature anion exchange reaction compatible with the back-end-of-line (BEOL) processes. All-2D PtSe FETs seamlessly edge-contacted with transited metallic PtTe exhibited significant performance improvements compared to those with surface-contacted gold electrodes, e.g., an increase of carrier mobility and on/off ratio by over an order of magnitude, achieving a maximum hole mobility of ∼50.30 cm V s at room temperature. This study opens up new opportunities toward atomically thin 2D-TMD-based circuitries with extraordinary functionalities.

Synthesizing two-dimensional (2D) platinum-based nanomaterials with controlled phases and compositions remains a formidable challenge. Here, we report PtTeBi@PtBi hexagonal core@shell nanosheets (PtTeBi@PtBi HCSNSs, = 2, 3, 4) for an efficient formic acid oxidation reaction (FAOR). Precise structure analysis unveils the atomic layer arrangements of trigonal and cubic phases for core and shell parts in PtTeBi@PtBi HCSNSs, finding the enrichments of Te, Bi, and Pt in the core, second outer layer, and outermost layer, respectively.

Compared to the first near-infrared (NIR-I) window (650-1000 nm), the second near-infrared (NIR-II) window (1000-1700 nm) is more valuable for photothermal treatment (PTT) due to its deeper tissue penetration and lower phototoxicity. However, the therapeutic efficacy of PTT remains suboptimal owing to the inherently low photothermal conversion efficiency (PCE) of existing materials. Therefore, the development of nanomaterials with high PCE is a promising strategy for improving anti-tumor therapy.

Anode-free Li-ion batteries (AFLBs) and Li-metal batteries (LMBs) offer superior energy densities compared to conventional Li-ion batteries with graphite anodes. However, they degrade faster owing to their lower Coulombic efficiency, primarily caused by uneven Li deposition on the current collector (CC) in AFLBs or the Li-metal anode (LMA) in LMBs. Coating CCs and LMAs has emerged as a promising strategy to enhance the CE.

Reducing friction has been a human pursuit for centuries, and is especially important for the development of nanotechnology. Nowadays, with the atomic-level understanding of friction, it is possible to reduce friction by modulating the configuration and motion of interfacial atoms. However, how to further reduce friction by modulating the interfacial electronic properties is still unclear.

Ferroelectric polarization switching in electrically controlled van der Waals multiferroic tunnel junctions (vdW-MFTJs) causes atomic migration, compromising device stability and fatigue resistance. Here, we propose fully magnetically controlled vdW-MFTJs based on a CrBr/MnPSe/CrBr vertical heterostructure, achieving ferroelectric polarization reversal without atomic migration. First-principles calculations reveal that integrating PtTe/alkali-metal (Li/Na/K)-doped/intercalated CrBr electrodes enables exceptional performance, with a maximum tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) of 8.
