A First-Principles Study of Nonlinear Elastic Behavior and Anisotropic Electronic Properties of Two-Dimensional HfS<sub>2</sub>

We utilize first principles calculations to investigate the mechanical properties and strain-dependent electronic band structure of the hexagonal phase of two dimensional (2D) HfS<sub>2</sub>. We apply three different deformation modes within &#8722;10% to 30% range of two uniaxial (...
