Van der Waals (vdW) materials exhibit a variety of states that can be switched with low power at low temperatures, offering a viable cryogenic "flash memory" required for the classical control electronics for solid-state quantum information…
Heat transport in two-dimensions is fundamentally different from that in three dimensions. As a consequence, the thermal properties of 2D materials are of great interest, both from scientific and application point of view. However, few…

Deviation from perfect conical dispersion in Dirac materials, such as the presence of mass or tilting, enhances control and directionality of electronic transport. To identify these signatures, we analyze the thermal derivative spectra of…
