Phase Transition of Single-Layer Molybdenum Disulfide Nanosheets under Mechanical Loading Based on Molecular Dynamics Simulations

The single-layer molybdenum disulfide (SLMoS2) nanosheets have been experimentally discovered to exist in two different polymorphs, which exhibit different electrical properties, metallic or semiconducting. Herein, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of nanoindentation and uniaxial compression were...
