Phase transitions between the 2H and 1Tâ phases in monolayer MoTe2 show promise for semiconductor applications, yet the atomistic pathways for nucleation and growth remain unclear. This paper investigates these kinetic mechanisms using atomistic simulations based on a machine learning interatomic potential trained on SCAN-DFT data.
