At interfaces between polar and nonpolar perovskite oxides, an unusual electron-doping has been previously observed, due to electronic reconstructions. We report on remote hole-doping at an interface composed of only polar layers, revealed…

We study the operation of infrared photodetectors based on van der Waals heterostructures with the multiple graphene layers (GLs) and n-type emitter and collector contacts. The operation of such GL infrared photodetectors (GLIPs) is…

The results of first principles electronic structure calculations for the metallic rutile and the insulating monoclinic M1 phase of vanadium dioxide are presented. In addition, the insulating M2 phase is investigated for the first time. The…

When the electron density of highly crystalline thin films is tuned by chemical doping or ionic liq- uid gating, interesting effects appear including unconventional superconductivity, sizeable spin-orbit coupling, competition with…

The electronic structure of the vanadium dioxide VO_2 in the tetragonal R and two monocinic M_1 and M_2 structural modifications was calculated in frames of the local-density functional (LDA) approach and the LSDA + U formalism of…

Insulator to metal (IMT) transition (T$_t$ $\sim$ 341 K) in the VO2 accompanies transition from an infrared (IR) transparent to IR opaque phase. Tailoring of the IMT and associated IR switching behavior can offer potential thermochromic…

We report the observation of electric-field-induced superconductivity on the surface of bulk polycrystalline MoS2 using electric double-layer doping. A gate voltage applied in an ionic liquid environment systematically increased carrier…

Recent progress in growth and characterization of thin-film VO$_2$ has shown its electronic properties can be significantly modulated by epitaxial matching. To throw new light on the concept of `Mott engineering', we develop a…

Metallization of initially insulating VO2 via ionic liquid electrolytes (electrolyte gating) has recently been a topic of much interest. It is clear that the metallization takes place electrochemically and there has previously been…

Density functional theory (DFT) and DFT corrected for on-site Coulomb interactions (DFT+U) calculations are presented on Aluminium doping in bulk TiO$_2$ and the anatase (101) surface. Particular attention is paid to the mobility of oxygen…

The metal-insulator transition (MIT) in vanadium dioxide (VO2) has the potential to lead to a number of disruptive technologies, including ultra-fast data storage, optical switches, and transistors which move beyond the limitations of…

Rutile ($R$) phase VO$_2$ is a quintessential example of a strongly correlated bad-metal, which undergoes a metal-insulator transition (MIT) concomitant with a structural transition to a V-V dimerized monoclinic phase below T$_{MIT} \sim…

We present a density-functional theory study of the effects of oxygen vacancies on the structural and electronic properties of vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$). Our motivation is the reported suppression of the metal-insulator transition by oxygen…

High quality strongly correlated two-dimensional (2D) electron systems at low temperatures $T\rightarrow 0$ exhibits an apparent metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) at a large $r_s$ value around 40. We have measured the magnetoresistance of…

A material which is an insulator entirely because of interaction effects is called a correlated insulator. Examples are trans-polyacetylene and the cuprate high temperature superconductors. Whereas doping of a band insulator results in a…

We report modifications of the temperature-dependent transport properties of $\mathrm{MoS_2}$ thin flakes via field-driven ion intercalation in an electric double layer transistor. We find that intercalation with $\mathrm{Li^+}$ ions…

Vanadium dioxide, VO2, and its metal-insulator transition at T=340K continues to receive considerable interest. The question whether the physics of the insulating low-temperature phase is dominated by the Mott or the Peierls scenario, i.e.…

The observation of electronic phase separation textures in vanadium dioxide (VO2), a prototypical electron-correlated oxide, has recently added new perspectives on the long standing debate about its metal-insulator transition and its…

We show that strong electronic repulsion transforms a vortex core from a metallic-type in overdoped regime to a Mott-insulator at underdoping of a strongly correlated d-wave superconductor. This changeover is accompanied by an accumulation…

We investigated optical absorption coefficient spectra of an epitaxial VO2 film in wide photon energy (0.5 - 5.0 eV) and temperature (100 - 380 K) regions. In its insulating phase, we observed two d-d transition peaks around 1.3 eV and 2.7…
