The electronic gap structure the organic molecule N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-(1,1'-biphenyl)-4,4'-diamine, or TPD, has been studied by means of a Scanning Tunneling Microscope (STM) operated under ambient conditions, and by…

Layered Zintl compounds exhibit significant tunability of thermoelectric (TE) parameters facilitated by their multiple elemental combinations and flexibility in stacking order within the layers. In this work, the effect of stacking order on…

This work introduces a new class of two-dimensional crystals with the structure AC$_8$XC$_8$, consisting of two layers of graphene, a chalcogen (X = O, S, Se, Te) intercalation layer, and an alkaline earth (A = Be, Ca, Mg, Sr, Ba) adlayer.…

Motivated by recent experimental observations of displacement-field-tuned correlated insulators at integer and half-integer fillings in chirally twisted triple bilayer graphene (CTTBG), we study the single-particle and interacting physics…

It was generally assumed that weak van der Waals interactions exist between neighboring layers in the two-dimensional group-IV chalcogenides. Using PbSe as a prototypal example, however, we find additional strong coupling between the Pb-Pb…

The PTCDA (3,4,9,10-Perylene-tetracarboxylic dianhydride) and the NTCDA (1,4,5,8-Naphtalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride) are aromatic, stable, planar and highly symmetric with unusual electrical properties. The PTCDA is a semiconductor…

PtBi$_2$ is a polymorphic system with interesting electronic properties. Here we report optimized crystal growth and structural characterization of pyrite-type and trigonal modification of PtBi$_2$. Selected area electron diffraction, X-ray…

Trilayer graphene {(TLG)} consists of three layers of graphene arranged in a particular stacking order. In the case of ABC-ABA-ABC stacking, the layers are arranged in an A-B-C sequence, followed by an A-B-A sequence, and again an A-B-C…

Structural phase separation in the form of partially disordered stripes, with characteristic length scales in the nanometer range, is observed for superconducting BaPb$_{1-x}$Bi$_x$O$_3$. The evolution of the superconducting coherence…

Zero-dimensional nanocrystals, as obtained by chemical synthesis, offer a broad range of applications, as their spectrum and thus their excitation gap can be tailored by variation of their size. Additionally, nanocrystals of the type ABC…

We report the electronic structure of the thermoelectric semimetal Ta$_2$PdSe$_6$ with a large thermoelectric power factor and giant Peltier conductivity by means of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). The ARPES spectra…

The full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FLAPW) method was used to study the crystal structure and electronic structure properties of PbFe0.5Nb0.5O3 (PFN). The optimized crystal structure, density of states, band structure and…

Quasi one dimensional materials provide a compelling platform where reduced dimensionality stabilizes intertwined topological and superconducting phases. Here we report superconductivity in a new Bi based quasi 1D compound, PtPb3Bi, which…

Materials with chiral electronic structures are of great interest. We report a triazatruxene, TAT, molecular semiconductor with chiral alkyl side chains that crystallises from solution to form chirally-stacked columns with a helical pitch…

The combination of non-trivial topology and superconductivity opens to novel quantum devices. The discovery of intrinsic materials where such properties appear together represents a frontier in modern condensed matter physics. Trigonal…

The search for materials similar to magnesium diboride, MgB2, based on structure and electronic similarity did not produce close enough superconductors in terms of Tc. Changing the search to iso-electronic and iso-atomic number equivalents…

Finding stimuli capable of driving an imbalance of spin-polarised electrons within a solid is the central challenge in the development of spintronic devices. However, without the aid of magnetism, routes towards this goal are highly…

The progress of designing organic semiconductors is extensively dependent on the quality of prepared organic molecular assemblies, since the charge transport mechanism is strongly efficient in highly ordered crystals compared to amorphous…

Superconductivity in topological insulators is expected to show very unconventional features such as $p+ip$ order parameter, Majorana fermions etc. However, the intrinsic superconductivity has been observed in a very limited number of…

Topological superconductors (TSCs) have a full gap in the bulk and gapless surface states consisting of Majorana fermions, which have potential applications in fault-tolerant topological quantum computation. Because TSCs are very rare in…
