Abstract

Modern semiconductor materials are increasingly used in multidisciplinary systems demonstrating cross-interactions between mechanical strains and electronic potentials, which gives rise to ubiquitous applications in high sensitivity, self-powered sensor devices. One of the fundamental prerequisites...
