Maximal Strain

The present study highlights the elastic properties of suspended GaS, GaSe and GaTe nanosheets using atomic force microscopy. GaS exhibited the highest Young's modulus (∼173 GPa) among these nanosheets. These materials can withstand maximal stresses of up to 8 GPa and a maximal strain of 7% before breaking, making them suitable for stretchable electronic and optomechanical devices.
