Phonon softening and crystallographic orientation of strained graphene studied by Raman spectroscopy
We present a systematic study of the Raman spectra of optical phonons in graphene monolayers under tunable uniaxial tensile stress. Both the G and 2D bands exhibit significant red shifts. The G band ...
Wildfires are a major source of fine particulate matter (diameter <2.5 µm; PM 2.5), which is a health hazard. Since the mid-1980s, the total US area burned by wildfires has been increasing, with fires ...
Open in Viewer (A) Schematic of a photocell consisting of quantum dots sandwiched between p and n doped semiconductors. Open circuit voltage and solar photon energy ℏνh are related by the Carnot ...
Open in Viewer Evolution of atmospheric CO 2 (a), methane (b), and nitrous oxide (c), and sampling intervals (d) over the past 20,000 years. The gray bar denotes the range of the preindustrial, ...
