Crystal phase is well studied and presents a periodical atom arrangement in three dimensions lattice, but the amorphous phase is poorly understood. Here, by starting from cage-like bicyclocalix[2]arene[2]triazines building block, a brand-new 2D MOF is constructed with extremely weak interlaminar interaction existing between two adjacent 2D-crystal layer. Inter-layer slip happens under external disturbance and leads to the loss of periodicity at one dimension in the crystal lattice, resulting in an interim phase between the crystal and amorphous phase - the chaos phase, non-periodical in microscopic scale but orderly in mesoscopic scale. This chaos phase 2D MOF is a disordered self-assembly of black-phosphorus like 3D-layer, which has excellent mechanical-strength and a thickness of 1.15 nm. The bulky 2D-MOF material is readily to be exfoliated into monolayer nanosheets in gram-scale with unprecedented evenness and homogeneity, as well as previously unattained lateral size (>10 um), which present the first mass-producible monolayer 2D material and can form wafer-scale film on substrate.

By means of ab initio calculations we investigate the possibility of existence of a boron nitride (BN) porous two-dimensional nanosheet which is geometrically similar to the carbon allotrope known as biphenylene carbon. The proposed structure, which we called Inorganic Graphenylene (IGP), is formed spontaneously after selective dehydrogenation of the porous Boron Nitride (BN) structure proposed by Ding et al. We study the structural and electronic properties of both porous BN and IGP and it is shown that, by selective substitution of B and N atoms with carbon atoms in these structures, the band gap can be significantly reduced, changing their behavior from insulators to semiconductors, thus opening the possibility of band gap engineering for this class of two-dimensional materials.
We present a many-body formalism for the simulation of time-resolved nonlinear spectroscopy and apply it to study the coherent interaction between excitons and trions in doped transition-metal dichalcogenides. Although the formalism can be straightfo rwardly applied in a first-principles manner, for simplicity we use a parameterized band structure and a static model dielectric function, both of which can be obtained from a calculation using the $GW$ approximation. Our simulation results shed light on the interplay between singlet and triplet trions in molybdenum- and tungsten-based compounds. Our two-dimensional electronic spectra are in excellent agreement with recent experiments and we accurately reproduce the beating of a cross-peak signal indicative of quantum coherence between excitons and trions. Although we confirm that the quantum beats in molybdenum-based monolayers unambigously reflect the exciton-trion coherence time, they are shown here to provide a lower-bound to the coherence time of tungsten analogues due to a destructive interference emerging from coexisting singlet and triplet trions.
Atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenide crystals (TMDCs) have extraordinary optical properties that make them attractive for future optoelectronic applications. Integration of TMDCs into practical all-dielectric heterostructures hinges on the ability to passivate and protect them against necessary fabrication steps on large scales. Despite its limited scalability, encapsulation of TMDCs in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) currently has no viable alternative for achieving high performance of the final device. Here, we show that the novel, ultrathin Ga$_2$O$_3$ glass is an ideal centimeter-scale coating material that enhances optical performance of the monolayers and protects them against further material deposition. In particular, Ga$_2$O$_3$ capping of commercial grade WS$_2$ monolayers outperforms hBN in both scalability and optical performance at room temperature. These properties make Ga$_2$O$_3$ highly suitable for large scale passivation and protection of monolayer TMDCs in functional heterostructures.
Atomically thin, two-dimensional (2D) indium selenide (InSe) has attracted considerable attention due to large tunability in the band gap (from 1.4 to 2.6 eV) and high carrier mobility. The intriguingly high dependence of band gap on layer thickness may lead to novel device applications, although its origin remains poorly understood, and generally attributed to quantum confinement effect. In this work, we demonstrate via first-principles calculations that strong interlayer coupling may be mainly responsible for this phenomenon, especially in the fewer-layer region, and it could also be an essential factor influencing other material properties of {beta}-InSe and {gamma}-InSe. Existence of strong interlayer coupling manifests itself in three aspects: (i) indirect-to-direct band gap transitions with increasing layer thickness; (ii) fan-like frequency diagrams of the shear and breathing modes of few-layer flakes; (iii) strong layer-dependent carrier mobilities. Our results indicate that multiple-layer InSe may be deserving of attention from FET-based technologies and also an ideal system to study interlayer coupling, possibly inherent in other 2D materials.

Nodal loops in two-dimensional (2D) systems are typically vulnerable against spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Here, we explore 2D systems with a type of doubly degenerate nodal loops that are robust under SOC and feature an hourglass type dispersion. We pr esent symmetry conditions for realizing such hourglass Weyl loops, which involve nonsymmorphic lattice symmetries. Depending on the symmetry, the loops may exhibit different patterns in the Brillouin zone. Based on first-principles calculations, we identify the monolayer GaTeI-family materials as a realistic material platform to realize such loops. These materials host a single hourglass Weyl loop circling around a high-symmetry point. Interestingly, there is also a spin-orbit Dirac point enabled by an additional screw axis. We show that the hourglass Weyl loop and the Dirac point are robust under a variety of applied strains. By breaking the screw axis, the Dirac point can be transformed into a second Weyl loop. Furthermore, by breaking the glide mirror, the hourglass Weyl loop and the spin-orbit Dirac point can both be transformed into a pair of spin-orbit Weyl points. Our work offers guidance and realistic material candidates for exploring fascinating physics of several novel 2D emergent fermions.
