Using first-principles plane wave calculations, we investigate two dimensional honeycomb structure of Group IV elements and their binary compounds, as well as the compounds of Group III-V elements. Based on structure optimization and phonon…
The topology of the band structure, which is determined by the lattice symmetries, has a strong influence on the transport properties. Here we consider an anisotropic honeycomb lattice and study the effect of a continuously deformed band…
Recently, a honeycomb borophene was reported to grow successfully on Al(111) surface. Since the metallic $\sigma$-bonding bands of honeycomb boron sheet play a crucial role in the 39 K superconductivity of MgB$_2$, it is physically…
Graphene+, a novel carbon monolayer with sp2-sp3 hybridization, is recently reported to exhibit graphene-like Dirac properties and unprecedented out-of-plane half-auxetic behavior [Yu et al, Cell Reports Physical Science, 3 100790 (2022)].…
Hexagonal boron nitride is an emerging two-dimensional material with far-reaching applications in fields like nanophotonics or nanomechanics. Its layered architecture plays a key role for new materials such as Van der Waals…
We determined frictional figures of merit for a pair of layered honeycomb nanostructures, such as graphane, fluorographene, MoS$_2$ and WO$_2$ moving over each other, by carrying out ab-initio calculations of interlayer interaction under…
We present a theoretical investigation on electron-phonon superconductivity of honeycomb MX$_2$ layered structures. Where X is one element of the group-IV (C, Si or Ge) and M an alkali or an alkaline-earth metal. Among the studied…
Controlling magnetism of transition metal atoms by pairing with $\pi$ electronic states of graphene is intriguing. Herein, through first - principle computation we explore the possibility of switching magnetization by forming the…
We investigate the electronic physics of layered Ni-based trichalcogenide NiPX$_3$ (X=S, Se), a member of transition-metal trichalcogenides (TMTs) with the chemical formula, ABX$_3$. These Ni-based TMTs distinguish themselves from other…
The hybrid nanostructures of nitrogen doped carbon materials and nonprecious transition metals are among the most promising electrocatalysts to replace noble metal catalysts for renewable energy applications. However, the fundamental…
Graphene is a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice with remarkable mechanical, electrical and optical properties. For the first time graphene layers suspended on copper meshes were installed into a gas detector…
We report that the ternary MgB2-xCx compounds adopt an isostructural AlB2-type hexagonal structure in a relatively small range of nominal carbon concentration, x<0.1. The lattice parameter a decreases almost linearly with increasing carbon…
In this work, a trial understanding for the physics underling the construction of exchange (hopping) matrix $\mathbf{E}$ in Heisenberg model (tight binding model) for 2D materials is done. It is found that the $\mathbf{E}$ matrix describes…
Two-dimensional electron dispersions with peculiar band crossings provide a platform for realizing topological phases of matter. Here we theoretically show that the $e_g$-orbital manifold of honeycomb-layered transition metal compounds…
Single-layer transition metal dihalides grown on conducting substrates were shown to host stable polarons. Here, we investigate polarons in insulating single-layer MnBr$_2$ grown by molecular beam epitaxy on three different substrates,…
At interfaces between insulating oxides LaAlO$_3$ and SrTiO$_3$, a two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) has been observed and well studied, while the predicted hole gas (2DHG) has not been realized due to the strong tendency of holes in…
We present an atomic-resolution observation and analysis of graphene constrictions and ribbons with sub-nanometer width. Graphene membranes are studied by imaging side spherical aberration-corrected transmission electron microscopy at 80…
Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is unique among two-dimensional materials, with a large band gap (~6 eV) and high thermal conductivity (>400 W/m/K), second only to diamond among electrical insulators. Most electronic studies to date have…
Due to the noticeable structural similarity and being neighborhood in periodic table of group-IV and -V elemental monolayers, whether the combination of group-IV and -V elements could have stable nanosheet structures with optimistic…
Low-buckled silicene, germanene, and stanene are group$-IV$ graphene allotropes. They form a honeycomb lattice out of two interpenetrating ($A$ and $B$) triangular sublattices that are vertically separated by a small distance $\Delta_z$.…
