The temperature ($\it T$) dependence of electrical resistivity in graphene has been experimentally investigated between 10 and 400 K for samples prepared on various substrates; HfO$_2$, SiO$_2$ and h-BN. The resistivity of graphene shows a…

The understanding of the kinetic properties of hydrogen (isotopes) adatoms on graphene is important in many fields. The kinetic properties of hydrogen-isotope (H, D and T) monomers were simulated using a composite method consisting of…

We discuss the phonon-assisted scattering of electrons by defects, i.e., the so-called Koshino-Taylor effect, in graphene. The two-dimensional character of graphene implies that the strength of the Koshino-Taylor effect can be considerably…

Thermal conductivity of aligned polymer molecules can be exceptionally high along the alignment direction due to energy transport through strong covalent bonds. At the same time, it is highly sensitive to molecular conformation, varying by…

We conducted density functional theory (DFT) and molecular dynamics simulations to explore the mechanical/failure, thermal conductivity and stability, electronic and optical properties of three N-graphdiyne nanomembranes. Our DFT results of…

Mechanical resonators are ubiquitous in modern information technology. With the ability to couple them to electromagnetic and plasmonic modes, they hold the promise to be the key building blocks in future quantum information technology.…

Inspired by some recent molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and experiments on suspended graphene nanoribbons, we study a simplified model where the atoms are disposed in a rectangular lattice coupled by nearest neighbor interactions which…

In the emergent field of quantum technology, the ability to manage heat at the nanoscale and in cryogenic conditions is crucial for enhancing device performance in terms of noise, coherence, and sensitivity. Here, we demonstrate the active…

In this report, we present Raman spectroscopy investigation of the thermal stability and dynamics of graphene edges. It was found that graphene edges (both armchair and zigzag) are not stable and undergo modifications even at temperature as…

Rotation and reflection symmetries impose that out-of-plane (flexural) phonons of free-standing graphene membranes have a quadratic dispersion at long wavelength and can be excited by charge carriers in pairs only. As a result, we find that…

The authors report on synthesis and thermal properties of the electrically-conductive thermal interface materials with the hybrid graphene-metal particle fillers. The thermal conductivity of resulting composites was increased by ~500% in a…

We demonstrate a flip-chip device for performing low-temperature acoustoelectric measurements on exfoliated two-dimensional materials. With this device, we study gate-tunable acoustoelectric transport in an exfoliated monolayer graphene…

Thermal diode, a type of device that allows heat to flow in one direction preferentially, can be employed in many thermal applications. However, if the mechanical compliance of the thermal diode is poor, which prevents its intimate contact…

Recent studies showed that the in-plane and inter-plane thermal conductivities of two-dimensional (2D) MoS2 are low, posing a significant challenge in heat management in MoS2-based electronic devices. To address this challenge, we design…

The wave property of phonons is employed to explore the thermal transport across a finite periodic array of nano-scatterers such as circular and triangular holes. As thermal phonons are generated in all directions, we study their…

Following the recent proposal by Weeks et al., which suggested that indium (or thallium) adatoms deposited on the surface of graphene should turn the latter into a quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulator characterized by a sizeable gap, we…

Graphene, the 2D form of carbon, has excellent mechanical, electrical and thermal properties and a variety of potential applications including NEMS, protective coatings, transparent electrodes in display devices and biological applications.…

The anharmonicity of the acoustic phonon dispersion of graphene has been studied by the harmonic linear response (HLR) approach at finite temperature. This is a non-perturbative method based on the linear response of the system to applied…

The electronic properties of two-dimensional materials and their heterostructures can be dramatically altered by varying the relative angle between the layers. This makes it theoretically possible to realize a new class of twistable…

Electronic cooling in hybrid normal metal-insulator-superconductor junctions is a promising technology for the manipulation of thermal loads in solid state nanosystems. One of the main bottlenecks for efficient electronic cooling is the…
