Meanings
-
Having properties that differ according to the direction of measurement; exhibiting anisotropy.
The crystal has an anisotropic structure, as it is stronger along its length than laterally.
The obtained low and anisotropic thermal conductivity, and feasibility of synthesis, in addition to other reports on high electron mobility, make arsenene a promising material for a variety of applications, including thermal management and thermoelectric devices..
