Out-of-plane vibrations are considered as the dominant factor limiting the intrinsic carrier mobility of suspended two-dimensional materials at low carrier concentrations. Anharmonic coupling between in-plane and flexural phonon modes is…
Opening a band gap and realizing static valley control have been long sought after in graphenebased two-dimensional (2D) materials. Motivated by the recent success in synthesizing 2D materials passivated by Si-N layers, here, we propose two…
Two-dimensional (2D) InSe and WS$_2$ exhibit promising characteristics for optoelectronic and photoelectrochemical applications, e.g. photodetection and photocatalytic water splitting. However, both of them have poor absorption of visible…
Ideal two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors with high mobility comparable to three-dimensional (3D) Si or GaAs are still lacking, hindering the development of high-performance 2D devices. Here in this work, using first-principles calculations…

Monolayer 2H-NbSe2 has recently been shown to be a 2-dimensional superconductor, with a coexisting charge-density wave (CDW). As both phenomena are intimately related to electron-lattice interaction, a natural question is how…
Doping of a two-dimensional (2D) material by impurity atoms occurs \textit{via} two distinct mechanisms: absorption of the dopants by the 2D crystal or adsorption on its surface. To distinguish the relevant mechanism, we systematically dope…
Atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors such as molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) hold great promise in electrical, optical, and mechanical devices and display novel physical phenomena such as coupled spin-valley physics and the…
Metal contacts to two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors are ubiquitous in modern electronic and optoelectronic devices. Such contacts are, however, often plagued by strong Fermi level pinning (FLP) effect which reduces the tunability of the…
Two-dimensional excitons formed in quantum materials such as monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides and their strong light-matter interaction have attracted unrivalled attention by the research community due to their extraordinarily…
Two-dimensional (2D) materials are among the most promising candidates for next-generation electronics due to their atomic thinness, allowing for flexible transparent electronics and ultimate length scaling. Thus far, atomically-thin p-n…
