Controllably modulating the structure of transition-metal chalcogenides (TMCs) from 2D to 1D and tuning their electronic properties has drawn particular attention currently due to their remarkable properties and potential applications. In this work, by precisely controlling the chemical concentration of Te atoms, the transformation from the 2D honeycomb AgTe monolayer to high-quality and well-defined 1D AgTe nanowires on the Ag(111) substrate has been successfully achieved. The combination of scanning tunneling microscopy measurements and first-principles calculations has confirmed that the mechanism underlying the entire dimensional transformation lies in the directional movement of Ag atoms in the 2D AgTe monolayer regulated by the concentration of Te atoms.

Two-dimensional (2D) structures composed of atomically thin materials with high carrier mobility have been studied as candidates for future transistors. However, owing to the unavailability of suitable high-quality dielectrics, 2D field-effect transistors (FETs) cannot attain the full theoretical potential and advantages despite their superior physical and electrical properties. Here we demonstrate the fabrication of atomically thin single-crystalline AlO (c-AlO) as a high-quality top-gate dielectric in 2D FETs.

Phosphorus pentamers (cyclo-P) are unstable in nature but can be synthesized at the Ag(111) surface. Unlike monolayer black phosphorous, little is known about their electronic properties when in contact with metal electrodes, although this is crucial for future applications. Here, we characterize the atomic structure of cyclo-P assembled on Ag(111) using atomic force microscopy with functionalized tips and density functional theory.

Electrode stability can be controlled to a large extent by constructing suitable composite structures, in which the heterojunction structure can affect the transport of electrons and ions through the effect of the interface state, changed band gap width, and the electric field at the interface. As a promising electrode material, the Ga-based material has a conversion between solid and liquid phases in the electrochemical reaction process, which endows it with self-healing properties with the structure and morphology. Based on these, the GaO/MnCO composite was successfully synthesized with a heterogeneous structure by introducing a Ga source in the hydrothermal process.
