We theoretically investigate the electric field-tuning plasmons and plasmon-phonon couplings of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), such as monolayer MoS2, under the consideration of spin-orbit coupling. It is…
Monolayer phosphorene provides a unique two-dimensional (2D) platform to investigate the fundamental dynamics of excitons and trions (charged excitons) in reduced dimensions. However, owing to its high instability, unambiguous…
Experimental studies on two-dimensional (2D) materials are still in the early stages, and most of the theoretical studies performed to screen these materials are limited to the room-temperature carrier-mobility in the free standing 2D…
Future electronics require aggressive scaling of channel material thickness while maintaining device performance. Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors are promising candidates, but despite over two decades of research, experimental…
We show that by combining high-k dielectric substrate and high density of charge carriers, Coulomb impurity can be effectively screened, leading to an unprecedented room-temperature mobility of ~150cm2/Vs in monolayer MoS2. The high sample…

The electrons and phonons in metal films after ultra-short pulse laser heating are in highly non-equilibrium states not only between the electron sub-system and the phonon sub-system but also within the electron sub-system. An…
