We discuss theoretically how electrons confined to two dimensions in a delta-doped heterostructure can arrange themselves in a droplet-like spatial distribution due to disorder and screening effects when their density is low. We apply this…
A density functional theory of ferromagnetism in heterostructures of compound semiconductors doped with magnetic impurities is presented. The variable functions in the density functional theory are the charge and spin densities of the…
Two-dimensional electron systems (2DESs) confined to the surface of narrowband semiconductors have attracted great interest since they can easily integrate with superconductivity (or ferromagnetism) enabling new possibilities in hybrid…
Low temperature carrier transport properties in two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor systems can be theoretically well-understood within a mean-field type RPA-Boltzmann theory as being limited by scattering from screened Coulomb disorder…
The resistivity model as a function of temperature and ionization energy (doping) is derived with further confinements from spin-disorder scattering in ferromagnetic phase. Magnetization and polaronic effects capture the mechanism of both…
Two-component conductors -- e.g., semi-metals and narrow band semiconductors -- often exhibit unusually strong magnetoresistance in a wide temperature range. Suppression of the Hall voltage near charge neutrality in such systems gives rise…
The current status of research on the carrier-mediated ferromagnetism in tetrahedrally coordinated semiconductors is briefly reviewed. The experimental results for III-V semiconductors, where Mn atoms introduce both spins and holes, are…
Narrow-gap higher mobility semiconducting alloys In_{1-x}Mn_{x}Sb were synthesized in polycrystalline form and their magnetic and transport properties have been investigated. Ferromagnetic response in In_{0.98}Mn_{0.02}Sb was detected by…
Semi-Dirac semimetals have received enthusiastic research both theoretically and experimentally in the recent years. Due to the anisotropic dispersion, its physical properties are highly direction-dependent. In this work we employ the…
We study theoretically the relative importance of short-range disorder in determining the low-temperature 2D mobility in GaAs-based structures with respect to Coulomb disorder which is known to be the dominant disorder in semiconductor…
MnAs/GaAs superlattices, made by $\delta$-doping GaAs with Mn, are known as digital ferromagnetic heterostructures. Here we present a theoretical density functional study of the electronic, magnetic and transport properties of such…
Magneto-transport measurements of ferromagnetic MnAs epilayers grown by molecular beam epitaxy reveal the presence of both positive and negative charge carriers. Electrical transport at high temperatures is dominated by holes, and at low…
Two-dimensional (2D) materials are a new class of materials with interesting physical properties and applications ranging from nanoelectronics to sensing and photonics. In addition to graphene, the most studied 2D material, monolayers of…
This paper, based on a presentation at the Spintronics 2001 conference, provides a review of our studies on II-VI and III-V Mn-doped Diluted Magnetic Semiconductors. We use simple models appropriate for the low carrier density (insulating)…
We study the quasiclassical magnetotransport of non-interacting fermions in two dimensions moving in a random array of strong scatterers (antidots, impurities or defects) on the background of a smooth random potential. We demonstrate that…
We describe a detailed study of the structural, magnetic, and magneto-transport properties of single-crystal, n-type, Mn-doped Bi2Te3 thin films grown by molecular beam epitaxy. With increasing Mn concentration, the crystal structure…
Since the prediction of spin-gapless semiconducting behaviour in the Heusler compound Mn$_2$CoAl, evidence of spin-gapless behaviour in thin films has typically been inferred from magnetotransport measurements. The spin gapless state is…
We simulate the electronic and transport properties of metal/two-dimensional material/metal vertical heterostructures, with a focus on graphene, hexagonal boron nitride and two phases of molybdenum diselenide. Using density functional…
This thesis investigates the magnetic, spectral, and transport properties of strongly correlated electronic systems, with a primary focus on the Hubbard model and its extensions relevant for real materials. Within the dynamical mean-field…
This paper introduces a novel method to account for quantum disorder effects into the classical drift-diffusion model of semiconductor transport through the localization landscape theory. Quantum confinement and quantum tunneling in the…
