Two-dimensional (2d) nano-electronics, plasmonics, and emergent phases require clean and local charge control, calling for layered, crystalline acceptors or donors. Our Raman, photovoltage, and electrical conductance measurements combined…
The effect of doping with hydrogen on the electrical properties of vanadium oxide is studied. For vanadium oxide films, subject to cold hydrogen plasma treatment, the temperature dependence of resistance with a maximum at T ~ 100 K is…
Recent experiments have triggered a debate about the ability of protons to transfer through individual layers of graphene and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). However, calculations have shown that the barriers to proton penetration can, at…

Metal-ion doping can effectively regulate the metal-insulator transition temperature in $\mathrm{VO}_2$. Experiments found that the pentavalent and hexavalent ion doping dramatically reduces the transition temperature while the trivalent…
Quantum vortices in superfluids may capture matter and deposit it inside their core. By doping vortices with foreign particles one can effectively visualize them and study experimentally. To acquire a better understanding of the interaction…
An ideal material for on-board hydrogen storage must release hydrogen at practical temperature and pressure and also regenerate efficiently under similarly gentle conditions. Therefore, thermodynamically, the hydride material must lie…
Rate theory and DFT calculations of hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) on MoS2 with Co, Ni and Pt impurities show the significance of dihydrogen (H2*) complex where both hydrogen atoms are interacting with the surface. Stabilization of such…
Vanadium dioxide (VO2) is a popular candidate for electronic and optical switching applications due to its well-known semiconductor-metal transition. Its study is notoriously challenging due to the interplay of long and short range elastic…

TiO$_2$ and SrTiO$_3$ are well known materials in the field of photocatalysis due to their exceptional electronic structure, high chemical stability, non-toxicity and low cost. However, owing to the wide band gap, these can be utilized only…
Although vanadium dioxide (VO2) exhibits the most abrupt metal to insulator transition (MIT) properties near room-temperature, the present regulation of their MIT functionalities is insufficient owing to the high complexity and susception…
Doping is an effective way to modify the electronic property of two-dimensional (2D) materials and endow them with new functionalities. However, wide-range control of the substitutional doping concentration with large scale uniformity…
Recent reports reveal that isothermal chemical doping of hydrogen in correlated complex oxides such as perovskite nickelates (e.g. NdNiO3) can induce a metal-to-insulator transition (MIT) without the need for temperature modulation. In this…
