The superlattice of alternating graphene/h-BN few-layered heterostructures is found to exhibit strong dependence on the parity of the number of layers within the stack. Odd-parity systems show a unique flamingo-like pattern, whereas their…
Hard/soft magnetic bilayer thin films have been widely used in data storage technologies and permanent magnet applications. The magnetic configuration and response to temperatures and magnetic fields in these heterostructures are considered…
Along with the inherent remarkable properties of graphene, adatom-intercalated graphene-related systems are expected to exhibit tunable electronic properties. The metal-based atoms could provide multi-orbital hybridizations with the…
Monolayer-thick hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is grown on graphene on SiC(0001), by exposure of the graphene to borazine, (BH)3(NH)3, at 1100 C. The h-BN films form ~2-micrometer size grains with a preferred orientation of 30 degrees…
The Y-chart is a powerful tool for understanding the relationship between various views (behavioral, structural, physical) of a system, at different levels of abstraction, from high-level, architecture and circuits, to low-level, devices…
Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is the supporting substrate of choice for two-dimensional material devices because it is atomically flat and chemically inert. However, due to the small size of mechanically exfoliated hBN flakes, electronic…
Interfacial interactions in two parallel-stacked hexagonal boron-nitride (hBN) layers facilitate sliding ferroelectricity, enabling novel device functionalities. Additionally, when Bernal or twisted bilayer graphene is aligned with an hBN…
Geometric and electronic properties of folded graphene nanoribbons (FGNRs) are investigated by first-principles calculations. These properties are mainly dominated by the competition or cooperation among stacking, curvature and edge…
Boron, nitrogen and carbon are neighbors in the periodic table and can form strikingly similar twin structures-hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) and graphene-yet nanofluidic experiments demonstrate drastically different water friction on them.…
We examine how the misorientation of a few stacked graphene layers affects the electronic structure of carbon nanosystems. We present {\it ab initio} calculations on bi- and trilayer systems to demonstrate that the massless Fermion behavior…
Heterostructures of atomically-thin materials have attracted significant interest owing to their ability to host novel electronic properties fundamentally distinct from their constituent layers. In the case of graphene on boron nitride, the…
We apply ideas of the parquet-diagram and optimized Fermi-hypernetted chain methods to determine the short-range structure of the pair wave function in neutron matter and compare these with Bethe-Goldstone results and those of low-order…
We investigate the low-lying excitation spectrum and ground-state properties of narrow graphene nanoribbons with zigzag edge configurations. Nanoribbons of comparable widths have been synthesized very recently [P. Ruffieux, \emph{et al.}…
DC photoelectrical currents can be generated purely as a non-linear effect in uniform media lacking inversion symmetry without the need for a material junction or bias voltages to drive it, in what is termed photogalvanic effect. These…
The interplay between substrate interactions and electron-phonon coupling in two-dimensional (2D) materials presents a significant challenge in understanding and controlling their electronic properties. Here, we present a comparative study…
We demonstrate that freeing a single-atom thick layer of hexagonal boron nitride (hbn) from tight chemical bonding to a Ni(111) thin film grown on a W(110) substrate can be achieved by intercalation of Au atoms into the interface. This…
The interlayer sliding energy landscape of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is investigated via a van der Waals corrected density functional theory approach. It is found that the main role of the van der Waals forces is to "anchor" the layers…
Graphene (G) is a two-dimensional material with exceptional sensing properties. In general, graphene gas sensors are produced in field effect transistor configuration on several substrates. The role of the substrates on the sensor…
Various machine learning models have been used to predict the properties of polycrystalline materials, but none of them directly consider the physical interactions among neighboring grains despite such microscopic interactions critically…
This study delves into the fundamental properties of graphene and boron nitride (BN) nanostructures, exploring their torsional energy characteristics within the framework of Teleparallel Equivalent of General Relativity (TEGR). By…
