“…High-throughput calculations have also predicted the stability of several tens of TMM compositions, which host various band structures (metal/semiconductor), magnetism, and device functionalities . To date, experimental realizations of TMM materials have focused predominantly on W- and Mo-based compositions − and have been achieved through chemical dissolution, , physical vapor deposition, ,,, and electron-beam irradiation. ,,, Some of these systems can even disperse into individual wires, such as single Mo 6 Te 6 wires encapsulated by CNTs; single Mo 6 Se 6 , Mo 6 S 6 , and W 6 Se 6 wires achieved by etching 2D TMD layers; , and single W 6 Te 6 wires grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) . In some pioneering experimental studies of TMM wires, 1D correlated quantum states have been found.…”
