Theoretical studies have shown that new physical properties such as tunable gap openings or quantum spinHall effects could be expected from group-IV graphene analogs (silicene, germanene, stanene). While therehave been numerous studies of…
Bi$_2$Te$_3$ is a topological insulator whose unique properties result from topological surface states in the band gap. The neutralization of scattered low energy Na$^+$, which is sensitive to dipoles that induce inhomogeneities in the…
The Kondo temperature $T_K$ of single Co adatoms on monolayers of Ag on Cu and Au(111) is determined using Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy. $T_K$ of Co on a single monolayer of Ag on either substrate is essentially the same as that of Co on…
The low-energy physics of rhombohedral $N$-layer graphene mainly arises on the external layers, where most of the {\pi} electrons are located. Their Bloch band structure defines a two-band semimetal; the dispersion relation scales as $\pm…
Within a two-band, strong coupling model we analyze SIS-tunneling conductance, Raman scattering and optical conductivity measured on $MgB_2$ samples. We find that features observed in tunneling and Raman spectroscopy at intermediate…
The control of recently observed spintronic effects in topological-insulator/ferromagnetic-metal (TI/FM) heterostructures is thwarted by the lack of understanding of band structure and spin texture around their interfaces. Here we combine…
We investigate the effect of elastic forward scattering on the ARPES spectrum of the cuprate superconductors. In the normal state, small angle scattering from out-of-plane impurities is thought to broaden the ARPES spectral response with…
The massless Dirac electrons found at topological insulator surfaces are thought to be influenced very little by weak, non-magnetic disorder. However, a resonance effect of strongly perturbing non-magnetic impurities has been theoretically…
Using a combination of scanning tunneling spectroscopy and atomic lateral manipulation, we obtained a systematic variation of the Kondo temperature ($T_\mathrm K$) of Co atoms on Ag(111) as a function of the surface state contribution to…
Quasiparticle tunneling spectra of both hole-doped (p-type) and electron-doped (n-type) cuprates are studied using a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope. The results reveal that neither the pairing symmetry nor the pseudogap…
Scattering by a single impurity introduced in a strongly correlated electronic system is studied by exact diagonalization of small clusters. It is shown that an inert site which is spinless and unable to accomodate holes can give rise to…
A number of interesting properties of graphene and graphite are postulated to derive from the peculiar bandstructure of graphene. This bandstructure consists of conical electron and hole pockets that meet at a single point in momentum (k)…
Scanning tunneling microscopy visualizations of quasiparticle interference (QPI) enable powerful insights into the k-space properties of superconducting, topological, Rashba and other exotic electronic phases, but their reliance on…
Gapless surface states on topological insulators are protected from elastic scattering on non-magnetic impurities which makes them promising candidates for low-power electronic applications. However, for wide-spread applications, these…
We study the influence of Born impurity scattering on the zero-energy Andreev bound states near the surface of a d-wave superconductor with and without an externally applied magnetic field. Without an external magnetic field we show that…
Copper-silver (CuAg) alloys are increasingly explored for applications in high-performance electrical and electronic systems, owing to their unique combination of high electrical and thermal conductivity and enhanced mechanical strength.…
We investigate the effects of bulk impurities on the electronic spectrum of Weyl semimetals, a recently identified class of Dirac-type materials. Using a $T$-matrix approach, we study resonant scattering due to a localized impurity in tight…
The band structure, intra- and interband scattering processes of the electrons at the surface of a bismuth-bilayer on Bi$_2$Se$_3$ have been experimentally investigated by low-temperature Fourier-transform scanning tunneling spectroscopy.…
We report on the formation of the high-energy empty-state resonance in the electronic spectrum of the iron adatom on the Pt(111) surface. By using the combination of the first-principles methods and the finite-temperature exact…
Recent scanning tunneling experiments on $Ca_{2-x}Na_xCuO_2Cl_2$ by Hanaguri et al. observe field-dependent quasiparticle interference effects which are sensitive to the sign of the d-wave order parameter. Their analysis of spatial…
