We demonstrated X-ray structural analysis of the pressure-induced superconductor, $\beta'$-ET$_2$ICl$_2$ under extremely high-pressure conditions, where ET denotes bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene. This material has been known as the…
Using molecular dynamics simulations we study the thermodynamic behavior of a single-component covalent material described by the recently proposed Environment-Dependent Interatomic Potential (EDIP). The parameterization of EDIP for silicon…
Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL) behavior in one-dimensional systems has been predicted and shown to occur at semiconductor-to-metal transitions within two-dimensional materials. Reports of one-dimensional defects hosting a Fermi liquid or a…
It is shown that a 2D system of free fermions on a square lattice with hoping between more than nearest neighbours undergoes a fundamental electronic topological transition (ETT) at some electron concentration n_c. The point…
We have demonstrated that the evolution of the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) system at an interface of metal and the model topological insulator (TI) Bi$_2$Se$_3$ can be controlled by choosing an appropriate kind of metal elements and…
Vanadium dioxide, an archetypal correlated-electron material, undergoes an insulator-metal transition near room temperature that exhibits electron-correlation-driven and structurally-driven physics. Using ultrafast optical spectroscopy and…
The polar interface between LaAlO$_{3}$ and SrTiO$_{3}$ has shown promise as a field effect transistor, with reduced (nanoscale) feature sizes and potentially added functionality over conventional semiconductor systems. However, the…
The deposition of a thin oxide layer at metal/semiconductor interfaces has been previously reported as a means of reducing contact resistance in 2D electronics. Using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy with in-situ Ti deposition, we fabricate…
After almost twenty years of intense work on the celebrated LaAlO3/SrTiO3 system, the recent discovery of a superconducting two-dimensional electron gases (2-DEG) in (111)-oriented KTaO3-based heterostructures injects new momentum to the…
When two different electronic materials are brought together, the resultant interface often shows unexpected quantum phenomena, including interfacial superconductivity and Fu-Kane topological superconductivity (TSC). Here, we use molecular…
The insulator-to-metal transition (IMT) in strongly correlated materials, such as vanadium dioxide (VO2), offers a transformative platform for next-generation adaptive electronics and neuromorphic computing. However, harnessing this…
Thickness driven electronic phase transitions are broadly observed in different types of functional perovskite heterostructures. However, uncertainty remains whether these effects are solely due to spatial confinement, broken symmetry or…
In strongly correlated transition metal dichalcogenides, an intricate interplay of polaronic distortions, stacking arrangement, and electronic correlations determines the nature of the insulating state. Here, we study the response of the…
Titanium silicide is a key contact material in advanced three-dimensional semiconductor device architectures. Here, we examine the formation of ultrathin Ti-silicide on Si(100) using a combination of non-destructive in-situ and ex-situ ion…
Hydrogen in metals is a significant research area with far-reaching implications, encompassing diverse fields such as hydrogen storage, metal-insulator transitions, and the recently emerging phenomenon of room-temperature ($\textit{$T_C$}$)…
Now-a-days, the development of clean and green energy sources is the prior interest of research due to increasing global energy demand and extensive usage of fossil fuels that create pollutants. Hydrogen has the highest energy density by…
Understanding degradation in battery cathodes and other functional materials requires simultaneous knowledge of structural, chemical, and electronic changes in three dimensions (3D). Here, we present a simultaneous ADF-EDS-EELS tomography…
The field-effect-induced modulation of transport properties of 2-dimensional electron gases residing at the LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ and LaGaO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interfaces has been investigated in a back-gate configuration. Both samples with…
Reducible oxides are widely used catalyst supports that can increase oxidation reaction rates by transferring their lattice oxygen at the metal-support interface. The interfacial oxidation process is typically described in terms of a…
Battery interfaces critically influence lithium-metal battery performance through their role in ion diffusion and dendrite formation. However, structural characterization of these interfaces has remained challenging due to limitations in…
