Two-dimensional materials, such as graphene, boron nitride and transition metal dichalcogenides, have attracted increased interest due to their potential applications in electronics and optoelectronics. Thermal transport in two-dimensional…
Two-dimensional materials have unusual phonon structures due to the presence of flexural (out-of-plane) modes. Although molecular dynamics simulations have been extensively used to study heat transport in such materials, conventional…
We investigate charge transport in pentacene-graphene nanojunctions employing density functional theory (DFT) electronic structure calculations and the Landauer transport formalism. The results show that the unique electronic properties of…
Defects change essentially not only electronic but also chemical properties of graphene being centers of its chemical activity. Their functionalization is a way to modify electronic and crystal structure of graphene which may be important…
In this work, we present an investigation regarding how and why molecular hydrogen changes the electronic properties of graphene field effect transistors. We demonstrate that interaction with H2 leads to local doping of graphene near of the…
The rapid technological progress in the 21st century demands new multi-functional materials applicable to a wide variety of industries. Two-dimensional (2D) materials are predicted to have a revolutionary impact on the cost, size, weight,…
We propose a mechanism to control the interaction between adsorbates on graphene. The interaction between a pair of adsorbates---the change in adsorption energy of one adsorbate in the presence of another---is dominated by the interaction…

Using first-principles modeling, we investigate how phonon transport evolves in layered/van der Waals materials when going from 3D to 2D, or vice versa, by gradually pulling apart the atomic layers in graphite to form graphene. Focus is…
We present a comparative study of high carrier density transport in mono-, bi-, and trilayer graphene using electric-double-layer transistors to continuously tune the carrier density up to values exceeding 10^{14} cm^{-2}. Whereas in…
We give an update of the situation concerning the effect of electron-electron interactions on the physics of a neutral graphene system at low energies. We revise old renormalization group results and the use of 1/N expansion to address…

Electron-phonon coupling directly determines the stability of cooperative order in solids, including superconductivity, charge and spin density waves. Therefore, the ability to enhance or reduce electron-phonon coupling by optical driving…
We report on a first-principles study of the conductance through graphene suspended between Al contacts as a function of junction length, width, and orientation. The charge transfer at the leads and into the freestanding section gives rise…
Isotope effects on phonon properties and transport have been predicted and observed for decades. However, despite the crucial impact of electron-phonon interactions, the effect of isotopes on electron transport remains largely unexplored.…
