There are around 20 known MXene structures at present, and some of the main excitement around these materials comes from some of their potential applications, including as energy storage materials. 2 ...

The underlying mechanism improving piezoelectricity via interfacial polarization is elucidated through combining the experimental results, molecular dynamics simulations and density functional theory ...

(Nanowerk News) MXenes are able to store large amounts of electrical energy like batteries and to charge and discharge rather quickly like a supercapacitor. They combine both talents and thus are a ...

A research team led by University of Nebraska–Lincoln materials scientists is exploring the physical properties of MXenes, a fast-growing family of two-dimensional materials with potential for many ...
