Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are a class of two-dimensional (2D) materials with unique electronic and optical properties. Composed of transition metal atoms (such as tungsten, molybdenum, ...

Oxides, often considered as synonymous with ceramics, bring terms such as china dishes or pottery to mind. However, oxides with transition metals that straddle the subtle boundary between covalent ...

The table shows the melting point and density of iron, compared to three non-transition metals. Iron, a transition metal, has a higher melting point and a higher density than the non-transition ...
