Atomically thin films

Dear iMechanicians,

I want to share our recent work published in IJSS on the mechanics of spontaneously formed 2D crystal bubbles. 

Two-dimensional crystals on adhesive substrates subjected to uniform transverse pressure

Zhaohe Dai, Yifan Rao, and Nanshu Lu

In this progress report, we reviewed recent advances in strategies for applying mechanical strain into 2D materials and recent state‐of‐the‐art characterizations of interface mechanics for 2D material–substrate systems.
