We consider the effect of the Coulomb interaction in strained graphene using tight-binding approximation together with the Hartree-Fock interactions. The many-body energy dispersion relation, anisotropic Fermi velocity renormalization and…
Devising ways of opening a band gap in graphene to make charge-carrier masses finite is essential for many applications. Recent experiments with graphene on hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) offer tantalizing hints that the weak interaction…
We examine the effect of a hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) substrate on electron transport through graphene nanojunctions just before gap formation. Junctions in vacuum and on hBN are formed using classical molecular dynamics to create…
In this work we demonstrate that a free-standing van der Waals heterostructure, usually regarded as a flat object, can exhibit an intrinsic buckled atomic structure resulting from the interaction between two layers with a small lattice…
We investigate interlayer adhesion and relaxation at interfaces between graphene and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) monolayers in van der Waals heterostructures. The adhesion potential between graphene and hBN is calculated as a function of…
We implement a self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation based on a microscopic model in real space, which allows us to consider the interplay between the Hubbard and the extended Coulomb interaction in twisted bilayer graphene at the…
We report on the observation of Coulomb drag between graphene-hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) moir\'{e} heterostructure with a moir\'{e} wavelength of $\sim$14 nm and an intrinsic graphene with a lattice constant of $\sim$0.25 nm. By tuning…
Graphene plasmons were predicted to possess ultra-strong field confinement and very low damping at the same time, enabling new classes of devices for deep subwavelength metamaterials, single-photon nonlinearities, extraordinarily strong…
The environment contributes to the screening of Coulomb interactions in two-dimensional semiconductors. This can potentially be exploited to tailor material properties as well as for sensing applications. Here, we investigate the tuning of…
We report on the investigation of periodic superstructures in twisted bilayer graphene (tBLG) van-der-Waals heterostructures, where one of the graphene layers is aligned to hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). Our theoretical simulations reveal…
Electron tunneling spectroscopy measurements on van der Waals heterostructures consisting of metal and graphene (or graphite) electrodes separated by atomically thin hexagonal boron nitride tunnel barriers are reported. The tunneling…
When electrons populate a flat band their kinetic energy becomes negligible, forcing them to organize in exotic many-body states to minimize their Coulomb energy. The zeroth Landau level of graphene under magnetic field is a particularly…
We performed tunneling spectroscopy measurements of graphene coupled to niobium/niobium-nitride superconducting electrodes. Due to the proximity effect, the graphene density of states depends on the phase difference between the…
Vertical integration of two-dimensional materials has recently emerged as an exciting method for the design of novel electronic and optoelectronic devices. Using density functional theory, we investigatethe structural and electronic…
Recent transport experiments have demonstrated that the rhombohedral stacking trilayer graphene is an insulator with an intrinsic gap of 6meV and the Bernal stacking trilayer one is a metal. We propose a Hubbard model with a moderate $U$…
Motivated by recent experimental observations of correlated metallic phases and superconductivity in rhombohedral trilayer graphene (RTG), we perform an unbiased study of electronic ordering instabilities in hole-doped RTG. Specifically, we…
The electronic structure of Nickel dichalcogenides, NiS$_2$ and NiSe$_2$, in monolayer form, is studied employing first-principles methods. We assess the importance of band ordering, covalency and Coulomb interactions in the ground state of…
Carbon(C) doped hexagonal boron nitride(hBN) has been experimentally reported in recent years to be a possible catalytic host to oxygen reduction reaction(ORR), as well as a possible ferromagnet at room temperature. Substitution by C in hBN…
The optical response and the ground state of graphene and graphene-like systems are determined self-consistently. Deriving equations of motion for the basic variables, graphene Bloch equations are introduced and combined with a variational…
We theoretically investigate the effects of Coulomb interaction, at the level of unscreened Hartree-Fock approximation, on third harmonic generation of undoped graphene in an equation of motion framework. The unperturbed electronic states…
