We explore the oxidation of a single layer of black phosphorous using ab initio density functional theory calculation. We search for the equilibrium structures of phosphorene oxides, PO$_x$ with various oxygen concentrations $x$…

Two-dimensional materials supporting deep-subwavelength plasmonic modes can also exhibit strong magneto-optical responses. Here, we theoretically investigate magnetoplasmons (MPs) in monolayer black phosphorus (BP) structures under moderate…

Black phosphorus is an infrared layered material. Its bandgap complements other widely studied two-dimensional materials: zero-gap graphene and visible/near-infrared gap transition metal dichalcogenides. Though highly desirable, a…

Black phosphorus (BP), a layered van der Waals material, reportedly has a band gap sensitive to external perturbations and manifests a Dirac-semimetal phase when its band gap is closed. Previous studies were focused on effects of each…

Structural transformation between metallic (1T) and semiconducting (2H) phases of single-layered MoS2 was systematically investigated by an in situ STEM with atomic precision. The 1T/2H phase transition is comprised of S and/or Mo…

Newly fabricated monolayer phosphorene and its few-layer structures are expected to be promising for electronic and optical applications because of their finite direct band gaps and sizable but anisotropic electronic mobility. By…

Two-dimensional polarity is intriguing but remains in the early stage. Here a structural evolution diagram is established for GeS monolayer, which leads a noncollinear ferrielectric $\delta$-phase energetically as stable as the…

We present a microscopic picture rationalizing the surprisingly steep decrease of the band gap with temperature in insulators, crystalline or otherwise. The gap narrowing largely results from fluctuations of long-wavelength optical…

We construct a metamaterial from radio-frequency harmonic oscillators, and find two topologically distinct phases resulting from dissipation engineered into the system. These phases are distinguished by a quantized value of bulk energy…

We report a double-layer electronic system made of two closely-spaced but electrically isolated graphene monolayers sandwiched in boron nitride. For large carrier densities in one of the layers, the adjacent layer no longer exhibits a…

GaGeTe is a layered material composed of germanene and GaTe sublayers that has been recently predicted to be a basic Z2 topological semimetal. To date, only one polytype of GaGeTe is known with trigonal centrosymmetric structure (alpha…

We investigate the possibility of band structure engineering in the recently predicted 2D layered form of blue phosphorus via an electric field (E$_z$) applied perpendicular to the layer(s). Using density functional theory, we study the…

We construct a holographic model in the framework of Q-lattices whose dual exhibits metal-insulator transitions. By introducing an interacting term between the Q-lattice and the electromagnetic field in bulk geometry, we find such kind of…

New allotropes of two-dimensional (2D) GaP and InP binary compounds were predicted from the structural optimization and dynamical stability analysis in the framework of the density functional calculations. These stabilized GaP and InP…

We propose here a two-dimensional material based on a single layer of violet or Hittorf's phosphorus. Using first-principles density functional theory, we find it to be energetically very stable, comparable to other previously proposed…

The capacity and stability of constituent electrodes determine the performance of Li-ion batteries. In this study, density functional theory is employed to explore the potential application of recently synthesized two dimensional…

An outstanding challenge of theoretical electronic structure is the description of van der Waals (vdW) interactions in molecules and solids. Renewed interest in resolving this is in part motivated by the technological promise of layered…

Using a simple LCAO model by Harrison, we have qualitatively studied the edge state of bilayer phosphorene, which is a unit structure of the layered crystal of black phosphorus. This model successfully reproduces the isolated edge state in…

Layered transition metal dichalcogenides MoTe$_2$ and WTe$_2$ share almost similar lattice constants as well as topological electronic properties except their structural phase transitions. While the former shows a first-order phase…

Black phosphorus (BP) exhibits highly anisotropic properties and dynamical behavior that are unique even among two-dimensional and van der Waals (vdW) layered materials. Here, we show that an interlayer lattice contraction and concerted,…
