Single-Layer MoS2: A Two-Dimensional Material with Negative Poisson's Ratio

Yucheng Zhu et al.

Summary: In this study, a two-dimensional material (space group R3 over bar m) with a negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) and a maximum NPR of -0.0846 in-plane was discovered using first-principles calculations. The NPR is mainly attributed to its unique zigzag structure and the strong interaction between Mo's 4d orbital and S's 3p orbital. Molecular dynamics simulations indicate the thermodynamic stability of this material. This research reveals the potential of layered MoS2 as a promising 2D NPR material for nanodevice applications.
