The hetero-zone boundary affected region (HBAR), with a high strain gradient, plays a crucial role in the synergistic deformation of layered materials. Our previous experimental study demonstrated that a decreasing interfacial spacing leads to a higher fraction of HBAR and an enhanced combination of...
