The study focuses on transition metal trichalcogenides with 1D structural motifs that can be exfoliated into bundles of atomic threads. These quasi-1D van der Waals nanostructures are characterized, and their composite performance is evaluated for relevant electromagnetic shielding, polarization selectivity, and terahertz radiation absorption functions.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/research-report/","Research

His guidance and advice carried me throughout this research. I am certain without his help, support, and encouragement, I could not have made any progress in my academic career.  \nMy gratitude extends to Dr. Alexander Khitun and Dr. Xi Chen for accepting to serve on my dissertation committee. Their immense knowledge and vast experience have always encouraged me in my academic research.  \nMy appreciation for Dr. Fariborz Kargar is beyond words. Without his great help in theoretical interpretation and, more importantly, his tea preparation skills, I would not be able to undertake this journey.  \nI am deeply indebted to Dr. Roger Lake, Dr. Sergey Rumyantsev, Dr. Lorenzo Mangolini, Dr. Tina Salguero, Dr. Yassamin Ghafouri, and Dr. Mykhaylo Balinsky, with whom I had the honor of collaborating on different projects.  \nI am extremely grateful to my parents, Ali Barani and Banoo Yavarnezhad, for all their love, care, and sacrifices. I sincerely appreciate my sister, Maryam Barani, my brother, Reza Barani, and my beautiful niece, Afra Kashefi. They encouraged and supported me in every single step toward this path.  \nI would like to express my sincerest appreciation to some of my most influential friends and colleagues: Bahman Kargar, Roghiyeh Vosoogh, Mehrdad Kargar, Marie Balandin,  \nDr. Vahid Mardanloo, Dr. Saba Baraghani, Dr. Elahe Aghapour, Dr. Salar Rahili, Dr. Evan Wigton-Jones, Sara Shirmohammad, Dr. Ruben Arash Salgado, Dr. Amirmahdi Mohammadzadeh, Dr. Subhajit Ghosh and all the previous and current students in POEM and NDL labs.  \nFinally, many thanks to my best friends, Elahe Babaei, Amin Zanganeh, Dr. Khosro Monsef, Maedeh Taheri, Narges Zarinkamar, Aneseh Mehrak; they are the definition of trust and friendship.  \nThe text and figures of this dissertation, in part or in full, are a reprint of the material as it appears in the following journals and/or proceedings [1–3]:  \n[1] Z.
