Based on ab initio calculations, we examine the incorporation of Li atoms in the MoS2/graphene interface. We find that the intercalated Li atoms are energetically more stable than Li atoms adsorbed on the MoS2 surface. The intercalated…
The intercalated two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have attracted much attention for their designable structure and novel properties. Among this family, host materials with low symmetry such as 1T' phase TMDCs…
Intercalation of different species under graphene on metals is an effective way to tailor electronic properties of these systems. Here we present the successful intercalation of metallic (Cu) and gaseous (oxygen) specimens underneath…
The effect of Mn intercalation on the atomic, electronic and magnetic structure of the graphene/Cu(111) interface is studied using state-of-the-art density functional theory calculations. Different structural models of the…
We use low-energy electron microscopy to investigate how graphene grows on Cu(111). Graphene islands first nucleate at substrate defects such as step bunches and impurities. A considerable fraction of these islands can be rotationally…
By comparing the growth of Cu thin films on bare and graphene-covered Ru(0001) surfaces, we demonstrate the role of graphene as a surfactant allowing the formation of flat Cu films. Low-energy electron microscopy, X-ray photoemission…
When doped into a certain range of charge carrier concentrations, MoS2 departs from its pristine semiconducting character to become a strongly correlated material characterized by exotic phenomena such as charge density waves or…
The influence of graphene on the assembly of intercalated material is studied using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy. Intercalation of Pt under monolayer graphene on Pt(111) induces a substrate reconstruction that is…
We fabricate ion-gated field-effect transistors (iFET) on mechanically exfoliated multilayer MoS$_2$. We encapsulate the flake by Al$_2$O$_3$, leaving the device channel exposed at the edges only. A stable Li$^+$ intercalation in the…
Properties of many layered materials, including copper- and iron-based superconductors, topological insulators, graphite and epitaxial graphene can be manipulated by inclusion of different atomic and molecular species between the layers via…
Graphene on SiC intercalated with two-dimensional metal layers, such as Pt, offers a versatile platform for applications in spintronics, catalysis, and beyond. Recent studies have demonstrated that Pt atoms can intercalate at the…
Graphene is one of the most promising 2D materials for various applications due to its unique electronic properties and high thermal stability. In previous studies, it was shown that when graphene is deposited onto some transition metal…
Intercalation has proven to be a powerful tool for tailoring the electronic properties of freestanding graphene layers as well as for stabilizing the intercalated material in a two-dimensional configuration. This work examines Si…
The intercalation of different species in graphene-metal interfaces is widely used to stabilise the artificial phases of different materials. However, formation of the surface alloys upon the guest-metal intercalation is still an open…
Magnesium intercalated 'quasi-freestanding' bilayer graphene on 6H-SiC(0001) (Mg-QFSBLG) has many favorable properties (e.g., highly n-type doped, relatively stable in ambient conditions). However, intercalation of Mg underneath monolayer…
Understanding the nature of the interaction at the graphene/metal interfaces is the basis for graphene-based electron- and spin-transport devices. Here we investigate the hybridization between graphene- and metal-derived electronic states…
Interlayer space in graphite is impermeable to ions and molecules, including protons. Its controlled expansion would find several applications in desalination, gas purification, high-density batteries, etc. In the past, metal intercalation…
Intercalation is a process of inserting chemical species into the heterointerfaces of two-dimensional (2D) layered materials. While much research has focused on intercalating metals and small gas molecules into graphene, the intercalation…
As a storage material for Li-ion batteries, graphene/molybdenum disulfide (Gr/MoS2) composites have been intensively studied in experiments. But the relevant theoretical works from first-principles are lacking. In the current work,…
We develop a strategy for graphene growth on Ru(0001) followed by silicon-layer intercalation that not only weakens the interaction of graphene with the metal substrate but also retains its superlative properties. This G/Si/Ru architecture,…
