Summary: A possibility of unprecedented architecture may be opened up by combining both vertical and in-plane heterostructures.It is fascinating to discover that the interlayer stress transfer, interlayer binding energy, and interlayer shear stress of bi-layer Gr/hBN with CNTs heterostructures greatly increase (more than 2 Wart and Corn Removers times) with increase the numbers of CNTs and both saturate at the numbers of CNTs = 3, but it causes only 10.92% decrease in failure strain.By analyzing the crack propagations and ZINC CITRATE 15MG Von-Mises stress, we find that this abnormal enhancement in interlayer stress transfer and toughness originates from the localization of the stress fields arising from misfit dislocations and their out-of-plane deformations at the joints of CNTs and B-Gr/hBN heterostructures.Our discoveries hold great importance in comprehending the mechanical interfacial characteristics of bi-layer Gr/hBN and are anticipated to spark a great deal of curiosity in investigating its novel physics and potential uses.
