Abstract

Piezotronics and piezo-phototronics based on the third-generation semiconductor (such as ZnO, GaN, CdS, and monolayer chalcogenides) and two-dimensional materials, have attracted increasing attention due to the coupling characteristic of piezoelectric, photon excitation, and semiconductor properties...
