Example Sentences

To investigate this behavior, the team used laser beams of various colors on a two-layer Janus TMD material composed of molybdenum sulfur selenide stacked on molybdenum disulfide.

From Science Daily

"We discovered that shining light on Janus molybdenum sulfur selenide and molybdenum disulfide creates tiny, directional forces inside the material, which show up as changes in its SHG pattern," Zhang said.

However, very similar curves also appeared in Dr. Dias’s thesis for an entirely different material, germanium selenide.

From New York Times

The other authors — Dr. Salamat and Dr. Dias, in particular — continued to defend the paper, saying that under pressure, both manganese sulfide and germanium selenide act like metals, and thus it would not be surprising that both materials would conduct electricity similarly.

From New York Times

That is how closely the manganese sulfide curve matches the germanium selenide one, this reviewer said.
