High contact resistances have blocked the progress of devices based on MX2 (M = Mo,W; X = S,Se,Te) 2D semiconductors. Interface states formed at MX2/metal contacts pin the Fermi level, leading to sizable Schottky barriers for p-type…
We systematically investigated electronic evolutions of non-symmorphic borophene with chemical environments that were realized by the ion exchange method. Electronic structures can be characterized by the topological $Z_2$ invariant.…
The van der Waals heterostructures of allotropes of phosphorene (${\alpha}$- and $\beta-P$) with MoSe2 (H-, T-, ZT- and SO-MoSe2) are investigated in the framework of state-of-the-art density functional theory. The semiconducting…

Layered transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) materials, i.e. 1T-TiSe$_2$ and 2H-NbSe$_2$, harbor a second order charge density wave (CDW) transition where phonons play a key role for the periodic modulations of conduction electron…

The electronic structure of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors can be significantly altered by screening effects, either from free charge carriers in the material itself, or by environmental screening from the surrounding medium. The…
Owing to its outstanding electronic properties, black phosphorus (BP) is considered as a promising material for next-generation optoelectronic devices. In this work, devices based on BP/MXene (Zrn+1CnT2, T = O, F, OH, n = 1, 2) van der…
