Tunable nonlinear refractive index of two-dimensional MoS 2 , WS 2 , and MoSe 2 nanosheet dispersions [Invited] (2015, unknown): “absorption coefficients and thermal conductivities [8,22–24].”
Strain effects on thermoelectric properties of two-dimensional materials (2015, background): “Since the phonon mean free path is only around 10 nm [108, 130], it was found both theoretically [108, 130-133] and experimentally [134, 135] that the thermal conductivity of monolayer MoS2 is 2~3 orders of magnitude lower than that of graphene.”
Colloquium: Phononic thermal properties of two-dimensional materials (2017, background): “As a result, a weaker phonon-phonon scattering rate is observed in WS2, which yields a much higher thermal conductivity in WS2 than in MoS2.”
ShengBTE: A solver of the Boltzmann transport equation for phonons (2014, methodology): “Such calculations have also been applied to two-dimensional systems such as graphene [28] andMoS2 [29].”
Survey of ab initio phonon thermal transport (2018, background): “layered counterparts) have emerged as potential candidates for various novel technologies, so too have PBT/DFT k calculations for them, including for MoS2 [106,168,169], WSe2 and WTe2 [170,171], black and blue phosphorene [167,172,173], graphene's cousins”
