Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) offer a novel two-dimensional platform for semiconductor devices. One such application, whereby the added low dimensional crystal physics (i.e. optical spin selection rules) may prove TMDs a…
The layered transition metal dichalcogenides host a rich collection of charge density wave (CDW) phases in which both the conduction electrons and the atomic structure display translational symmetry breaking. Manipulating these complex…
Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) magnetic materials could be an ideal platform for ultracompact spintronic applications. Among them, FeCl$_{2}$ monolayer in the triangular lattice is subject to a strong debate. Thus, we critically…
Understanding strongly interacting electrons enables the design of materials, nanostructures and devices. Developing this understanding relies on the ability to tune and control electron-electron interactions by, e.g., confining electrons…
We present in-depth measurements of the electronic band structure of the transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) MoS2 and WS2 using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, with focus on the energy splittings in their valence bands at the…
In this article we review recent work on van der Waals (vdW) systems in which at least one of the components has strong spin-orbit coupling. We focus on a selection of vdW heterostructures to exemplify the type of interesting electronic…
VSe$_2$ is a layered compound that has attracted great attention due to its proximity to a ferromagnetic state that is quenched by the presence of a charge density wave (CDW) phase. In the monolayer limit, unrelated experiments have…
We study the consequences of the approximately trigonal ($D_{3d}$) point symmetry of the transition metal (M) site in two-dimensional van der Waals MX$_2$ dihalides and MX$_3$ trihalides. The trigonal symmetry leads to a 2-2-1 orbital…

Loop arrangements and their quantum superpositions describe several interesting many-particle states. We propose that they also describe bonding in a class of transition metal dichalcogenides. We present an effective quantum loop model for…
An anomalous $(2\times2)$ charge density wave (CDW) phase emerges in monolayer 1T-TiTe$_2$ which is absent for the bulk compound, and whose origin is still poorly understood. Here, we investigate the electronic band structure evolution…

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides MX2 (M = Mo, W, X = S, Se, Te) attracts enormous research interests in recent years. Its 2H phase possesses an indirect to direct bandgap transition in 2D limit, and thus shows great…
Atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides are highly promising for integrated optoelectronic and photonic systems due to their exciton-driven linear and nonlinear interaction with light. Integrating them into optical fibers yields…
