MXene PHonon Database

MXenes are a family of two-dimensional materials composed of transition metal carbides, nitrides, or carbonitrides, derived from their bulk MAX phases. They exhibit metallic conductivity, tunable surface chemistry, and a layered structure—making them attractive for energy storage, electronics, and sensors. This database provides crystal structures and phonon dispersions of selected MXenes.
