A new technical paper titled “Enhancing Cu-barrier properties of 2D-WS2 barriers: The role of grain size and surface passivation” was published by researchers at National University of Singapore, ...

The team’s new synthesis protocol allows for the production of tungsten disulfide nanotubes which point in the same direction. The material they make show the key properties of single nanotubes. Tokyo ...

In a study published in Nano Letters, Tokyo Metropolitan University researchers created the first tungsten disulfide nanotubes that point in the same direction upon formation. The team’s new synthesis ...

A superconducting ink that can be printed onto surfaces in a single-molecule-thick layer could prove useful for the building of circuits for quantum computers. The tungsten disulfide ink is more ...

The shifting, scintillating pattern you can see when you stack two slightly misaligned window screens is called moiré. A similar interference effect occurs when scientists stack two-dimensional ...

Take a lattice -- a flat section of a grid of uniform cells, like a window screen or a honeycomb -- and lay another, similar lattice above it. But instead of trying to line up the edges or the cells ...

Scientists from the Tohoku University in Japan have fabricated a near-invisible solar cell based on indium tin oxide (ITO) and tungsten disulfide (WS 2) as a transparent electrode and a photoactive ...

Zooming into the microscopic world of Tungsten Disulfide reveals an intricate and mesmerizing structure. The details hidden at this scale are absolutely mind-blowing!

Monolayer films of tungsten disulfide, just three atoms thick, have unique electronic valleys which can be manipulated with laser light. This finding, by MIT physics graduate student Edbert Jarvis Sie ...

Researchers from Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah University of Science and Technology claim to have developed a highly performant organic PV cell using tungsten disulfide flakes a few atoms thick. The ...
