Few-layer black phosphorus (BP), as the most alluring graphene analogue owing to its similar structure as graphene and thickness dependent direct band-gap, has now triggered a new wave of research on two-dimensional (2D) materials based…
The ongoing demand for more energy-efficient, high-performance electronics is driving the exploration of innovative materials and device architectures, where interfaces play a crucial role due to the continuous downscaling of device…
Two-dimensional crystals are emerging materials for nanoelectronics. Development of the field requires candidate systems with both a high carrier mobility and, in contrast to graphene, a sufficiently large electronic bandgap. Here we…
Since the emergence of monolayer graphene as a promising two-dimensional material, many other monolayer and few-layer materials have been investigated extensively. An experimental study of few-layer Si2Te3 was recently reported, showing…
Supercontinuum generation is performed in the bulk semiconductor tellurium (Te) with a high-power picosecond CO$_2$ laser at peak intensities up to 20 GW/cm$^2$. The spectrum spans from the second harmonic of the pump at 5.3 $\mu$m to 32…

The energy bandgap is an intrinsic character of semiconductors, which largely determines their properties. The ability to continuously and reversibly tune the bandgap of a single device during real time operation is of great importance not…
The fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect is a macroscopic manifestation of strong electron-electron interactions. Even denominator FQH states (FQHSs) at half-filling are particularly interesting as they are predicted to host non-Abelian…

This study investigates the transport properties of a chiral elemental semiconductor tellurium (Te) under magnetic fields and pressure. Application of hydrostatic pressure reduces the resistivity of Te, while its temperature dependence…
Silver and copper monohalides can be viewed as a class of compounds in the neutral zone between predominantly covalent and ionic compounds, thereby exhibiting neither strong ionicity nor strong covalency. We show ab initio calculation…
