Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are promising candidates for a wide variety of ultrascaled electronic, quantum computation, and optoelectronic applications. The exponential decay of electronic density of states into the bandgap,…
Among the most common few-layers transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), WSe2 is the most challenging material from the lattice dynamics point of view. Indeed, for a long time the main two phonon modes (A1g and E12g) have been wrongly…
Van der Waals heterostructures of two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides provide a unique platform to engineer optoelectronic devices tuning their optical properties via stacking, twisting, or straining. Using ab initio Many-Body…
Van der Waals (vdW) materials have greatly expanded our design space of heterostructures by allowing individual layers to be stacked at non-equilibrium configurations, for example via control of the twist angle. Such heterostructures not…
We study the evolution of the band-gap structure in few-layer MoTe$_2$ crystals, by means of low-temperature micro-reflectance (MR) and temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) measurements. The analysis of the measurements indicate…
When semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides heterostructures are stacked the twist angle and lattice mismatch leads to a periodic moir\'e potential. As the angle between the layers changes, so do the electronic properties. As the…
Strong electron-electron interaction can induce Mott insulating state, which is believed to host unusual correlated phenomena such as quantum spin liquid when quantum fluctuation dominates and unconventional superconductivity through…
Efficient heat dissipation to the substrate is crucial for optimal device performance in nanoelectronics. We develop a theory of electronic thermal boundary conductance (TBC) mediated by remote phonon scattering for the single-layer…
Coordination-related, two-dimensional (2D) structural phase transitions are a fascinating and novel facet of two-dimensional materials with structural degeneracies. Nevertheless, a unified theoretical account of these transitions remains…
Materials with reduced dimensionality offer beneficial density-of-states (DOS) profiles for thermoelectric energy conversion, but can be impractical in realistic devices. Encouragingly, bulk high-symmetry materials can also exhibit similar…
Atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) such as MoS$_2$ and WSe$_2$ are emerging as a new platform for exploring many-body effects. Coulomb interactions are markedly enhanced in these materials because of the reduced…
This paper demonstrates the high-quality tunnel barrier characteristics and layer number controlled tunnel resistance of a transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) measuring just a few monolayers in thickness. Investigation of vertical…

Transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are valuable as solid lubricants because of their layered structure, which allows for easy shearing along the basal planes. Using Density Functional Theory (DFT) we conducted a first-principles study…
