Tellurium (Te) is an elemental semiconductor with a simple chiral crystal structure. Te in a two-dimensional (2D) form synthesized by solution-based method shows excellent electrical, optical, and thermal properties. In this work, the…
Dirac and Weyl nodal materials can host low-energy relativistic quasiparticles. Under strong magnetic fields, the topological properties of Dirac/Weyl materials can directly manifest through quantum Hall states. However, most Dirac/Weyl…
Few-layer selenium and tellurium films have been recently prepared, and they provide a new platform to explore novel properties of two-dimensional (2D) elemental materials. In this work, we have performed a systematic first-principles study…
Element semiconductor Te is very popular in both fundamental electronic structure study, and device fabrication research area due to its unique band structure. Specifically, in low temperatures, Te possesses strong quantum oscillations with…
Tellurium (Te) has attracted great research interest due to its unique crystal structure since 1970s. However, the conduction band of Te is rarely studied experimentally because of the intrinsic p-type nature of Te crystal. By atomic layer…
Quantum Hall effect (QHE) is a macroscopic manifestation of quantized states which only occurs in confined two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) systems. Experimentally, QHE is hosted in high mobility 2DEG with large external magnetic field…
We present a comprehensive first-principles investigation of the structural, electronic, vibrational, and topological properties of tellurium across its dimensional hierarchy, including bulk trigonal Te-I, two-dimensional tellurene…
The precise control of a bilayer system consisting of two adjacent two-dimensional electron gases (2DEG) is demonstrated by using a novel planar back-gate approach based on ion implantation. This technique overcomes some common problems of…
Semiconductor interfaces, such as these existing in multilayer structures (e.g., quantum wells (QWs)), are interesting because of their ability to form 2D electron gases (2DEGs), in which charge carriers behave completely differently than…
Semiconducting transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exhibit high mobility, strong spin-orbit coupling, and large effective masses, which simultaneously leads to a rich wealth of Landau quantizations and inherently strong electronic…
Two-component fractional quantum Hall systems are providing a major motivation for a large section of the physics community. Here we study two-component fractional quantum Hall systems in the spin-polarized half-filled lowest Landau level…
Topological Weyl semimetal WTe2 with large-scale film form has a promising prospect for new-generation spintronic devices. However, it remains a hard task to suppress the defect states in large-scale WTe2 films due to the chemical nature.…
The electronic states of a single Bi(111) bilayer and its edges, suggested as a two dimensional topological insulator, are investigated by scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) and first-principles calculations. Well-ordered bilayer films…
A quantum Hall edge state provides a rich foundation to study electrons in 1-dimension (1d) but is limited to chiral propagation along a single direction. Here, we demonstrate a versatile platform to realize new 1d systems made by combining…
We study theoretically the two-dimensional topological electric state in a single band semiconductor with strong spin-orbit interactions under harmonic scalar electrostatic potentials. The electronic states described by the spin Landau…
Here we report on a transparent method to characterize individual layers in a double-layer electron system which forms in a wide quantum well and to determine their electron densities. The technique relies on the simultaneous measurement of…
Monolayer (ML) semiconducting transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) represent a unique class of two-dimensional (2D) electron systems. Their atomically thin structure -- just like graphene -- facilitates gate-tunability, while the sizable…
We have studied quantized transport in HgTe wells with inverted band structure corresponding to the two-dimensional topological insulator phase (2D TI) with locally-controlled density allowing n-p-n and n-2D TI-n junctions. The resistance…
Interplay between the topological surface states and bulk states gives rise to diverse exotic transport phenomena in topological materials. The recently proposed Weyl orbit in topological semimetals in the presence of magnetic field is a…
We study the influence of quantizing perpendicular magnetic fields on the ground state of a bilayer with electron and hole fluids separated by an opaque tunnel barrier. In the absence of a field, the ground state at low carrier densities is…
