The strong excitonic emission at 5.75 eV of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) makes this material one of the most promising candidate for light emitting devices in the far ultraviolet (UV). However, single excitons occur only in perfect…
A real-space method using generating integers is used to classify the possible moire patterns for two equal hexagonal lattices. The result is that the rotations that take (n,m) to (m,n) with n,m relatively prime form the fundamental moire…
Controlling the size and shape of nanopores in two-dimensional materials is a key challenge in applications such as DNA sequencing, sieving, and quantum emission in artificial atoms. We here investigate experimentally and theoretically…
The thickness and interfacial geometry of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) films grown by chemical vapor deposition on polycrystalline nickel foils is studied using low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM). The reflectivity of the electrons,…
The structure optimization, phonon, and ab initio finite temperature molecular dynamics calculations have been performed to predict that bilayer silicene has stable structure with AB stacking geometry and is more favorable energetically to…
We present a first-principles-based many-body typical medium dynamical cluster approximation method for characterizing electron localization in disordered structures. This method applied to monolayer hexagonal boron nitride shows that the…
In twisted layered materials (t-LMs), an inter-layer rotation can break inversion symmetry and create an interfacial array of staggered out-of-plane polarization due to AB/BA stacking registries. This symmetry breaking can also trigger the…
A novel kind of crystal order in high-density nanoconfined bilayer ice is proposed from molecular dynamics and density-functional theory simulations. A first-order transition is observed between a low-temperature proton-ordered solid and a…
We present a general picture of the exciton properties of layered materials in terms of the excitations of their single-layer building blocks. To this end, we derive a model excitonic hamiltonian by drawing an analogy with molecular…
High-level first-principles computations predict blue phosphorene bilayer to be a two-dimensional metal. This structure has not been considered before and was identified by employing a block-diagram scheme that yields the complete set of…
The interlayer interaction in graphene/boron-nitride heterostructures is studied using density functional theory calculations with the correction for van der Waals interactions. It is shown that the use of the experimental interlayer…
Inelastic neutron scattering study has been performed in an S=3/2 bilayer honeycomb lattice compound Bi3Mn4O12(NO3) at ambient and high magnetic fields. Relatively broad and monotonically dispersive magnetic excitations were observed at…
We have explored the electronic properties of stacked graphene flakes with the help of the quantum chemistry methods. We found that the behavior of a bilayer system is governed by the strength of the repulsive interactions that arise…
The practical implementation of lithium-metal anodes has been hindered by uncontrollable dendrite formation and interfacial instability. This study presents a defect-engineering approach of a chemically stable and electrically insulating…
Controlling ion transport is a fundamental challenge for advanced energy storage. Bilayer graphene offers a unique platform for modulating ion diffusion via twist-angle-dependent moire superlattices, yet conventional stacking configurations…
The geometric, electronic and magnetic properties of silicene-related systems present the diversified phenomena through the first-principles calculations. The critical factors, the group-IV monoelements, buckled/planar structures, stacking…
Hexagonal boron nitride (BN) is widely used as a substrate and gate insulator for two-dimensional (2D) electronic devices. The studies on insulating properties and electrical reliability of BN itself, however, are quite limited. Here, we…
Recently, the in-plane thermal transport in van der Waals (vdW) materials such as graphene, hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) has been widely studied. Whereas, the cross-plane one is far from…
We report resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) measurements on the prototypical hexagonal boron nitride hBN layered compound. The RIXS results at the B and N K edges have been combined with electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS)…
Single-layer $\it{h}$-BN is known to have edges with unique magnetism, however, in the commonly fabricated multilayer $\text{AA}^{\prime}$-$\it{h}$-BN, edge relaxations occur that create interlayer bonds and eliminate the unpaired electrons…
