Graphene has an extremely high carrier mobility partly due to its planar mirror symmetry inhibiting scattering by the highly occupied acoustic flexural phonons. Electrostatic gating of a graphene device can break the planar mirror symmetry…
The scattering of the eletron by a domain wall in a nano-wire is studied perturbatively to the lowest order. The correction to the thermodaynamic potential of the electron system due to the scattering is calculated from the phase shift. The…

We probe the relationship between magnetism and "non-metallic" transport in the magnetically frustrated metal FeCrAs using the low-field Hall effect. We find that the low-field Hall coefficient is dependent on crystal orientation, and…

We investigate, both theoretically and experimentally, the drift, diffusion, and recombination of excitons in the strain field of an edge threading dislocation intersecting the GaN{0001} surface. We calculate and measure hyperspectral…
We report an unconventional temperature dependence of the resistivity in several strongly correlated systems approaching a localized to itinerant electronic transition from the itinerant electron side. The observed resistivity, proportioanl…
Crystalline defects are generally regarded as static phonon scatterers that irreversibly suppress thermal transport. Here we show that elastic strain can dynamically and reversibly reorganize dislocation ensembles and strongly modify heat…
