We performed ultrafast degenerate pump-probe spectroscopy on monolayer WSe2 near its exciton resonance. The observed differential reflectance signals exhibit signatures of strong many-body interactions including the exciton-exciton…
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have recently been the focus of extensive research. By following a similar trend as graphene, other 2D materials including transition metal dichalcogenides (MX2) and metal mono-chalcogenides (MX) show great…
Suppressing of an ordered state that competes with superconductivity is one route to enhance superconducting transition temperatures. Whereas the effect of suppressing magnetic states is still not fully understood, materials featuring…
The investigation of 2D van der Waals (vdW) materials is a vibrant, fast moving and still growing interdisciplinary area of research. 2D vdW materials are truly 2D crystals with strong covalent in-plane bonds and weak van der Waals…
In this study, we explore the impact of short-range antiferromagnetic correlations on the charge density wave (CDW) phase in strongly correlated electron systems exhibiting the pseudogap phenomenon. Our investigation employs a n-pole…
Lateral charge transport of a two-dimensional (2D) electronic system can be much influenced by feeding a current into another closely spaced 2D conductor, known as the Coulomb drag phenomenon -- a powerful probe of electron-electron…
An unexpected feature common to 2H-transition metal dichalcogenides (2H-TMDs) is revealed with first-principles Wannier functions analysis of the electronic structure of the prototype 2H-TaSe2: The low-energy Ta \red{``$5d_{z^2}$''} bands…
Recently in the Wien2k code, the modified Becke-Johnson potential (mBJLDA) was implemented. As the authors [{\em Phys.Rev.Lett.} 102, 226401 (2009)] point, this potential reproduces the band gap of semiconductors with improved accuracy. In…
We have adjusted the Density Matrix Renormalization method to handle two dimensional systems of limited width. The key ingredient for this extension is the incorporation of symmetries in the method. The advantage of our approach is that we…
The discovery of graphene has put the spotlight on other layered materials including transition metal dichalcogenites (TMD) as building blocks for novel heterostructures assembled from stacked atomic layers. Molybdenum disulfide, MoS2, a…
We uncover a useful connection between the integrated current noise $S(\omega)$ and the topological band gap in dispersionless quantum states, $\int d \omega [ \mathcal S^{\text{flat}}_{xx} + \mathcal S^{\text{flat}}_{yy} ] = C e^2…
Recent technical progress demonstrates the possibility of stacking together virtually any combination of atomically thin crystals of van der Waals bonded compounds to form new types of heterostructures and interfaces. As a result, there is…
By means of first-principles density functional calculations, we study the maximally localized Wannier functions for the 2D transition metal dichalcogenides MX2 (M=Mo,W X=S,Se,Te). We found a M^+4-like ionic charge and a single occupied…
The strong spin-orbit coupling and the broken inversion symmetry in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) results in spin-valley coupled band structures. Such a band structure leads to novel applications in the fields of…
We report a strain-induced direct-to-indirect band gap transition in mechanically deformed WS2 monolayers (MLs). The necessary amount of strain is attained by proton irradiation of bulk WS2 and the ensuing formation of one-ML-thick,…
Two-dimensional (2D) atomic materials possess very different properties from their bulk counterparts. While changes in the single-particle electronic properties have been extensively investigated, modifications in the many-body collective…
We carefully study how the fermion-fermion interactions affect the low-energy states of a two-dimensional spin-$1/2$ fermionic system on the kagom\'{e} lattice with a quadratic band crossing point. With the help of the renormalization group…
In correlated electron materials, the application of many-body techniques for the study of interaction effects or unconventional superconductivity often requires the formulation of an effective low-energy model that contains only the…
We present a theory of the influence of band renormalization and excitonic electron-electron interaction effects on the optical conductivity $\sigma(\omega)$ of doped bilayer graphene. Using the Keldysh formalism, we derive a kinetic…
To have a fully ab initio description of the Moir\'e pattern in a transition metal dichalcogenide heterobilayer, we have carried out density functional theory calculations, taking accounts of both atomic registry in and the lattice…
