Abstract

Pieoztronic and piezo-phototronic are two emerging fields of flexible electronics and nanoelectronics using by piezoelectric semiconductor materials, such as ZnO, GaN, InN and CdS. Recent experiments shown piezoelectric and semiconductor properties of monolayer MoS2, which have been applied as nanog...
