Negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) materials (when stretched longitudinally, the thickness of these materials increases along the lateral direction) are widely used in engineering because of their good resistance to shear, denting, and fracture. Observance of a negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) in two-dimensional (2D) single-layer materials presently has two explanations. The first, from mechanical principles, is that it derives from the presence of a special structure (hinge structure), such as in single-layer black phosphorus (BP) or bl
