The layered dichalcogenide MoS2 has many unique physical properties in low dimensions. Recent experimental Raman spectroscopies report an anomalous blue shift of the in-plane E2g1 mode with decreasing thickness, a trend that is not…
The origin of strange metallic phase is shown to exist due to these two conditions---(i) the electrons are strongly interacting such that there are no band and Mott-Hubbard gaps, and (ii) the electronic energy levels are crossed in such a…
In VO$_2$, the explicit origin of the insulator-to-metal transition is still disputable between Peierls and Mott insulators. Along with the controversy, its second monoclinic (M2) phase has received considerable attention due to the…
Semiconducting monolayer of 2D material are able to concatenate multiple interesting properties into a single component. Here, by combining opto-mechanical and electronic measurements, we demonstrate the presence of a partial 2H-1T phase…
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is a highly attractive 2D material due to its interesting electronic properties. Recent experimental advances confirm the possibility of further tuning the electronic properties of MoS2 through the fabrication of…
While 2D materials attract considerable interests for their exotic electronic and mechanical properties, their phase behaviour is still largely not understood. This work focuses on (Mo:Ti)S$_2$ binary alloys which have captured the interest…
The semimetallic or semiconducting nature of the transition metal dichalcogenide 1$T$-TiSe$_2$ remains under debate after many decades mainly due to the fluctuating nature of its 2 $\times$ 2 $\times$ 2 charge-density-wave (CDW) phase at…
We provide a critical perspective on the collection of low-temperature transport phenomena in low-density two-dimensional semiconductor systems often referred to as the 2D metal-insulator transition. We discuss the physical mechanisms…
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) are currently among the most interesting two-dimensional (2D) materials due to their outstanding properties. MoTe2 involves attractive polymorphic TMD crystals which can exist in three different 2D…
Recent demonstrations of controlled switching between different ordered macroscopic states by impulsive electromagnetic perturbations in complex materials have opened some fundamental questions on the mechanisms responsible for such…
In ultra-thin two-dimensional (2-D) materials, the formation of ohmic contacts with top metallic layers is a challenging task that involves different processes than in bulk-like structures. Besides the Schottky barrier height, the transfer…
In the field of atomically thin 2D materials, oxides are relatively unexplored in spite of the large number of layered oxide structures amenable to exfoliation. There is an increasing interest in ultra-thin film oxide nanostructures from…
Developing techniques for high-quality synthesis of mono and few-layered 2D materials with lowered complexity and cost continues to remain an important goal, both for accelerating fundamental research and for applications development. We…
Monolayer molybdenum disulphide (MoS$_2$) is a promising two-dimensional (2D) material for nanoelectronic and optoelectronic applications. The large-area growth of MoS$_2$ has been demonstrated using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) in a…
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS$_2$) is a promising material for making two-dimensional crystals and flexible electronic and optoelectronic devices at the nanoscale. MoS$_2$ flakes can show high mobilities and have even been integrated in…
Two-dimensional (2D) topological superconductors are highly desired because they not only offer opportunities for exploring novel exotic quantum physics, but also possesses potential applications in quantum computation. However, there are…
Layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are commonly classified as quasi-two-dimensional materials, meaning that their electronic structure closely resembles that of an individual layer, which results in resistivity anisotropies…
Two dimensional materials offer a path forward for smaller and more efficient devices. Their optical and electronic properties give way to beat the limits set in place by Moore's Law. Plasmon are the collective oscillations of electrons and…
Structural transformation between metallic (1T) and semiconducting (2H) phases of single-layered MoS2 was systematically investigated by an in situ STEM with atomic precision. The 1T/2H phase transition is comprised of S and/or Mo…
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS$_2$) is a high-potential material for nanoelectronic applications, especially when thinned to a few layers. Liquid phase exfoliation enables large-scale fabrication of thin films comprising single- and few-layer…
