Piezotronic effect in 1D van der Waals solid

Piezotronic effect in nanostructured piezoelectric semiconductors offers exciting opportunities. We report the first experimental exploration of piezotronic effect in 1D van der Waals solid of p-type tellurium nanobelt and systematically investigate the strain-gated charge carriers transport properties. The strain-induced polarization charges at the surfaces of Te nanobelt can modulate the electronic transport through the interfacial […]
