We review a series of works describing thermoelectric effects in gated disordered nanowires (field effect transistor device configuration). After considering the elastic coherent regime characterizing sub-Kelvin temperatures, we study the…
We have fabricated ultra-thin YBa2Cu3O7-x nanowires with a high critical current density and studied their voltage switching behavior in the 4.2 - 90 K temperature range. A comparison of our experimental data with theoretical models…
A narrow energy band of the electronic spectrum in some direction in low-dimensional crystals may lead to a negative differential conductance and N-shaped I-V curve that results in an instability of the uniform stationary state. A…
Quantum behavior of superconducting nanowires may essentially depend on the employed experimental setup. Here we investigate a setup that enables passing equilibrium supercurrent across an arbitrary segment of the wire without restricting…
We have measured the response of the flux-line lattice in the low T$_c$ superconductor, 2H-NbSe$_2$, to finite frequency drives. In a well-defined range of fields, temperatures, and driving amplitudes the system exhibits a variety of novel…
Graphene provides a unique platform for hosting high quality 2D electron systems. Encapsulating graphene with hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) to shield it from noisy environments offers the potential to achieve ultrahigh performance…
The recent development of the superlattice nanowire pattern transfer (SNAP) technique allows for the fabrication of arrays of nanowires at a diameter, pitch, aspect ratio, and regularity beyond competing approaches. Here, we report the…
The extraordinary electronic and optical properties of the crystal-to-amorphous transition in phase-change materials led to important developments in memory applications. A promising outlook is offered by nanoscaling such phase-change…
Two-dimensional materials are an emerging class of new materials with a wide range of electrical and optical properties and potential applications. Single-layer structures of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides are gaining…
The presence of periodic modulation in graphene leads to a reconstruction of the band structure and formation of minibands. In an external uniform magnetic field, a fractal energy spectrum called Hofstadter butterfly is formed. Particularly…
{\it Ab initio} density functional theory calculations are performed to investigate the electronic structure of MoS$_2$ armchair nanoribbons in the presence of an external static electric field. Such nanoribbons, which are nonmagnetic and…
Electric field-induced magnetization switching in multiferroics holds profound promise for ultra-low-energy computing in beyond Moore's law era. Bistable nanomagnets in the multiferroics are usually deemed to be suitable for storing a…
We study field-effect transistors realized from VO2 nanobeams with HfO2 as the gate dielectric. When heated up from low to high temperatures, VO2 undergoes an insulator-to-metal transition. We observe a change in conductance (~ 6 percent)…
Stacking two layers of graphene with a relative twist angle gives rise to moir\'e patterns, which can strongly modify electronic behavior and may lead to unconventional superconductivity. A synthetic version of twisted bilayers can be…
We find clear signatures of spin-dependent negative differential resistance in compound systems comprising a graphene nanoribbon and a set of ferromagnetic insulator strips deposited on top of it. The periodic array of ferromagnetic strips…
NaAlSi is a quasi-two-dimensional semimetal with superconductivity below Tc = 6.8 K and a band structure characterized by nodal lines near the Fermi level and potential topological surface states. Electrical resistivity measurements on its…
We show that space-charge instabilities (electric field domains) in semiconductor superlattices are the attribute of absolute negative conductance induced by small constant and large alternating electric fields. We propose the efficient…
We have studied non-equilibrium phase transitions in the vortex lattice in superconducting MgB2, where metastable states are observed in connection with an intrinsically continuous rotation transition. Using small-angle neutron scattering…
We report a strategy to design nanoscale cold-source field-effect transistors (CS-FETs) with bias-independent sub-60 mV/dec subthreshold swing (SS). By first-principles calculations and quantum-transport simulations, we reveal that the…
The use of resistive shunts in superconducting electronics is vast and versatile, to dampen oscillations in junctions, stabilize switching behavior, aid current sensing, divert current during quenches, and protect both the superconductor…
