We study the metal-insulator transition (MIT) in weakly coupled disordered planes on the basis of a Non-Linear Sigma Model (NL$\sigma $M). Using two different methods, a renormalization group (RG) approach and an auxiliary field method, we…

The electrical control of a material's conductivity is at the heart of modern electronics. Conventionally, this control is achieved by tuning the density of mobile charge carriers. A completely different approach is possible in Mott…

We present a theoretical investigation of the voltage-driven metal insulator transition based on solving coupled Boltzmann and Hartree-Fock equations to determine the insulating gap and the electron distribution in a model system -- a one…

A correlated material in the vicinity of an insulator-metal transition (IMT) exhibits rich phenomenology and variety of interesting phases. A common avenue to induce IMTs in Mott insulators is doping, which inevitably leads to disorder.…

It has been proposed that an extended version of the Hubbard model which potentially hosts rich correlated physics may be well simulated by the transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) moir\'{e} heterostructures. Motivated by recent reports of…

We predict the existence of an intriguing "disorder by order" phenomenon in graphene transport where higher quality (and thus more ordered) samples, while having higher mobility at high carrier density, will manifest more strongly…
