Since the MoSiN monolayer was synthesized experimentally, the family of 2D septuple-layer MoSiN-like materials have attracted widespread attention. However, to date, research on such materials in the thermoelectric field has been rarely reported. In this work, combining first-principles calculations and Boltzmann transport equations, we have investigated the electronic and thermal transport properties of the MoPGaS monolayer.

However, the low laser damage threshold and two-photon absorption, caused by the small bandgap, have hindered the applications of commercial IR NLO materials. In this work, LiCdSiS, with a wide bandgap (3.

Gas pressure, input power, and plasma volume are critical to both the microwave electromagnetic wave phase shift and electron density. This paper presents a novel type of large coaxial gridded hollow cathode plasma having a 50 cm diameter and a 40 cm thickness.
