 abstract = {Relative out-of-plane displacements of the constituent layers of
two-dimensional materials give rise to unique low-frequency breathing
modes. By computing the height-height correlation functions from
molecular dynamics simulations, we show that the layer breathing modes
(LBMs) can be mapped consistently to vibrations of a simple linear chain
model. Our calculated thickness dependence of LBM frequencies for
few-layer (FL) graphene and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) are in excellent
agreement with available experiments. Our results show a redshift of LBM
frequency with an increase in temperature, which is a direct consequence
of anharmonicities present in the interlayer interaction. We also
predict the thickness and temperature dependence of LBM frequencies for
FL hexagonal boron nitride. Our Rapid Communication provides a simple
and efficient way to probe the interlayer interaction for layered
materials and their heterostructures with the inclusion of anharmonic
effects.},
