The emergence of correlated phenomena arising from the combination of 1T and 1H van der Waals layers is the focus of intense research. Here, we synthesize a self-stacked 6R phase in NbSeTe, showing perfect alternating 1T and 1H layers that grow coherently along the c-direction, as revealed by scanning transmission electron microscopy. Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy shows a mixed contribution of the trigonal and octahedral Nb bands to the Fermi level.

Two-dimensional van der Waals materials have become an established platform to engineer flat bands which can lead to strongly-correlated emergent phenomena. In particular, the family of Ta dichalcogenides in the 1T phase presents a star-of-David charge density wave that creates a flat band at the Fermi level. For TaSand TaSethis flat band is at half filling leading to a magnetic insulating phase.

Emotional processing is a cognitive function essential for the interaction of humans with their environment and the development of adaptive behaviors. Adolescent offenders (AOs) express difficulty in cognitive processes linked to emotional processing, which is a response consistently observed during the endogenous (i.e.

The emergence of symmetry-breaking orders such as ferromagnetism and the weak interlayer bonding in van der Waals materials offers a unique platform to engineer novel heterostructures and tune transport properties like thermal conductivity. Here, we report the experimental and theoretical study of the cross-plane thermal conductivity, κ, of the van der Waals two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnet FeGeTe. We observe an increase in κ with thickness, indicating a diffusive transport regime with ballistic contributions.

Article Synopsis
  • People who have had a stroke sometimes have trouble with body balance, pushing to one side instead of standing straight.
  • A group of experts worked together to create guidelines to help rehabilitate these individuals since no clear instructions previously existed.
  • They came up with 119 recommendations to improve therapy, focusing on helping people feel more secure, managing fear of falling, and planning their recovery effectively.
