Most recent exciting experimental advances introduced buckled and flat borophene nanomembranes as new members to the advancing family of two-dimensional (2D) materials. Borophene, is the boron atom analogue of graphene with interesting…
2D materials support unique excitations of quasi-particles that consist of a material excitation and photons called polaritons. Especially interesting are in-plane propagating polaritons which can be confined to a single monolayer and carry…
The great potential of Dirac electrons for plasmonics and photonics has been readily recognized after their discovery in graphene, followed by applications to smart optical devices. Dirac carriers are also found in topological insulators…
Plasmons in low-dimensional systems respresent an important tool for coupling energy into nanostructures and the localization of energy on the scale of only a few nanometers. Contrary to ordinary surface plasmons of metallic bulk materials,…

The search for topological semimetals is mainly focused on heavy-element compounds as following the footsteps of previous research on topological insulators, with less attention on light-element materials. However, the negligible spin orbit…
Topological insulators are innovative materials with semiconducting bulk together with surface states forming a Dirac cone, which ensure metallic conduction in the surface plane. Therefore, topological insulators represent an ideal platform…
Based on first-principles calculations, we systematically study the electronic, dielectric, and plasmonic properties of two-dimensional (2D) electride materials X$_2$N (X=Ca, Sr). We show that both Ca$_2$N and Sr$_2$N are stable down to…
Two-dimensional (2D) carbon-based materials have attracted considerable interest due to their diverse structural and electronic properties, making them ideal for next-generation flat electronics. Among these materials, metallic-like porous…

The remarkable properties of graphene stem from its two-dimensional (2D) structure, with a linear dispersion of the electronic states at the corners of the Brillouin zone (BZ) forming a Dirac cone. Since then, other 2D materials have been…

Phosphorene, a single atomic layer of black phosphorus, has recently emerged as a new twodimensional (2D) material that holds promise for electronic and photonic technology. Here we experimentally demonstrate that the electronic structure…
Low-symmetry 2D materials---such as ReS$_2$ and ReSe$_2$ monolayers, black phosphorus monolayers, group-IV monochalcogenide monolayers, borophene, among others---have more complex atomistic structures than the honeycomb lattices of…
A major challenge in the investigation of all 2D materials is the development of synthesis protocols and tools which would enable their large-scale production and effective manipulation. The same holds for borophene, where experiments are…
We analytically establish an anomalous transverse flow of heat in 8-\textit{Pmmn} borophene, one of the several two-dimensional (2D) allotropes of Boron (B). The dispersion of this allotrope contains a pair of anisotropic and tilted Dirac…
Plasmons in two-dimensional electron systems (2DES) feature ultra-strong confinement and are expected to efficiently mediate the interactions between light and charge carriers. Despite these expectations, the electromagnetic detectors…
