With the shrinking of dimensionality, Coulomb interactions play a distinct role in two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors owing to the reduced dielectric screening in the out-of-plane direction. Apart from dielectric screening, free charge…

Strong correlation effects, which are often associated to the approach to a Mott insulating state, in some cases may be observed even far from half-filling. This typically happens whenever the inter-site Coulomb repulsion induces a tendency…
