Valley asymmetry of the electron spectrum in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) originates from the spin-orbit coupling. Presence of spin-orbit fields of opposite signs for electrons in K and K' valleys in combination with possibility…
TMDs have recently been spotlighted due to their original features. Firstly, they have layered structures with Van der Waals interactions. Secondly, they have different phases, affecting a degree of anisotropy. Finally, they have excellent…
The pentatellurides, ZrTe5 and HfTe5 are layered compounds with one dimensional transition-metal chains that show a never understood temperature dependent transition in transport properties as well as recently discovered properties…
One-dimensional grain boundaries of two-dimensional semiconducting {\MX} (M= Mo,W; X=S,Se) transition metal di-chalcogenides are typically metallic at room temperature. The metallicity has its origin in the lattice polarization, which for…
We present angle-resolved reflected electron spectroscopy (ARRES) data for the three molybdenum-based transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) \mos, \mose, and \mote. To follow the changes as the series moves from S to Se to Te in more…
So far, several transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) based two-dimensional (2D) topological insulators (TIs) have been discovered, all of them based on a tetragonal lattice. However, in 2D crystals, the hexagonal rather than the…
Topological insulators are a class of band insulators with non-trivial topology, a result of band inversion due to the strong spin-orbit coupling. The transition between topological and normal insulator can be realized by tuning the…
Transition-metal dichalcogenide IrTe2 has attracted attention because of striped lattice, charge ordering and superconductivity. We have investigated the surface structure of IrTe2, using low energy electron diffraction (LEED) and scanning…

It is quite intriguing to investigate the transition from a topological insulator (TI) phase to topological crystalline insulator (TCI) phase in a material as the latter has an advantage over the former in controlled device applications.…
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exhibit unconventional Landau level (LL) spectra that cannot be fully captured by an effective mass approximation or a minimal two-band Dirac model. Namely, TMDs show an anomalous, upward-sloping…

Chalcogen vacancies in transition metal dichalcogenides are widely acknowledged as both donor dopants and as a source of disorder. The electronic structure of sulphur vacancies in MoS2 however is still controversial, with discrepancies in…
Nanotubes (NTs) of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), such as MoS2 and WS2, were first synthesized more than a quarter of a century ago; nevertheless, many of their properties have so far remained basically unknown. This review…
Two-dimensional (2D) materials exhibit a wide range of remarkable phenomena, many of which owe their existence to the relativistic spin-orbit coupling (SOC) effects. To understand and predict properties of materials containing heavy…
