The production of high-quality hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is essential for the ultimate performance of two-dimensional (2D) materials-based devices, since it is the key 2D encapsulation material. Here, a decisive guideline is reported…
Two-dimensional (2D) materials for their versatile band structures and strictly 2D nature have attracted considerable attention over the past decade. Graphene is a robust material for spintronics owing to its weak spin-orbit and hyperfine…
We use computer simulations to study the kinetics and mechanism of proton passage through a narrow-pore carbon-nanotube membrane separating reservoirs of liquid water. Free energy and rate constant calculations show that protons move across…
Graphene, a two-dimensional crystal made of carbon atoms, provides a new and unexpected bridge between low and high-energy physics. The field has evolved very fast and very good reviews are already available in the literature. Graphene…
We study the tunneling of Dirac fermions in graphene through a double barrier potential allowing the carriers to have an effective mass inside the barrier as generated by a lattice miss-match with the boron nitride substrate. The…
The honeycomb lattice of graphene is a unique two-dimensional (2D) system where the quantum mechanics of electrons is equivalent to that of relativistic Dirac fermions. Novel nanometer-scale behavior in this material, including electronic…
Transient cooling phenomenon in two-dimensional materials is studied based on the phonon Boltzmann transport equation (BTE). Using a heating laser pulse to heat the two-dimensional disk geometry under the environment temperature, after the…
Photon-assisted charge transport through a double barrier structure under a time periodic field in graphene is studied. Within the framework of the Floquet formalism and using the transfer matrix method, the transmission probabilities for…
The extremely high thermal conductivity of graphene has received great attention both in experiments and calculations. Obviously, new feature in thermal properties is of primary importance for application of graphene-based materials in…
Irradiation with high-energy ions has been widely suggested as a tool to engineer properties of graphene. Experiments show that it indeed has a strong effect on its transport, magnetic and mechanical characteristics. However, to use ion…
We study the radiative heat transfer between multilayer structures made by a periodic repetition of a graphene sheet and a hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) slab. Surface plasmons in a monolayer graphene can couple with a hyperbolic phonon…
The observation and electrical manipulation of infrared surface plasmons in graphene have triggered a search for similar photonic capabilities in other atomically thin materials that enable electrical modulation of light at visible and…
We study quantum tunneling through a potential barrier whose height fluctuates in time and is modeled by Gaussian white noise. We map the stochastic dynamics onto an equivalent time-independent Lindblad equation for the density matrix,…
Because of the dominant role of the surface of molecules and their individuality, molecules behave dis-tinctively in a confined space, which has far-reaching implications in many physical, chemical and bio-logical systems. Here, we…
We present electronic transport measurements of single- and bilayer graphene on commercially available hexagonal boron nitride. We extract mobilities as high as 125 000 cm^2/V/s at room temperature and 275 000 cm^2/V/s at 4.2 K. The…
Graphene/silicon heterostructures have attracted tremendous interest as a new platform for diverse electronic and photonic devices such as barristors, solar cells, optical modulators, and chemical sensors. The studies to date largely focus…
We report a bipolar field effect tunneling transistor that exploits to advantage the low density of states in graphene and its one atomic layer thickness. Our proof-of-concept devices are graphene heterostructures with atomically thin boron…
Previous research based on electronic structure calculations and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have demonstrated that graphdiyne (GDY) is a very suitable two-dimensional membrane for the separation of small molecules in a gas mixture…
Since the discovery of graphene -a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice - it was clear that this truly is a unique material system with an unprecedented combination of physical properties. Graphene is the thinnest…
The quantum Hall (QH) effect in two-dimensional electron systems (2DESs) is conventionally observed at liquid-helium temperatures, where lattice vibrations are strongly suppressed and bulk carrier scattering is dominated by disorder.…
