By taking account of the electric-field-induced charge screening, a self-consistent calculation within the framework of the tight-binding approach is employed to obtain the electronic band structure of gated multilayer phosphorene and the…
We investigate the structural damage of graphene underlying dielectrics (HfO2 and Al2O3) by remote plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PE-ALD). Dielectric film is grown on bilayer graphene without inducing significant damage to the…
Drawing inspiration from bilayer graphene, this paper introduces its photonic analog comprising two stacked graphene-like photonic crystals, that are coupled in the near-field through spoof surface plasmons. Beyond the twist degree of…
We study collective plasmon excitations and screening of disordered single- and bilayer black phosphorus beyond the low energy continuum approximation. The dynamical polarizability of phosphorene is computed using a tight-binding model that…
Two-dimensional (2D) black phosphorus (i.e., phosphorene) has become a rising star in electronics. Recently, 2D phosphorus oxides with higher stability have been synthesized. In this work, we systematically explore the structures and…
It is known that there is a wide class of quasi-two-dimensional graphenelike nanomaterials which in many respects can outperform graphene. So, here in addition to graphene, the attention is directed to stanene (buckled honeycomb structure)…
The application of strain to 2D materials allows manipulating the electronic, magnetic, and thermoelectric properties. These physical properties are sensitive to slight variations induced by tensile and compressive strain and to the…
Materials with tailored quantum properties can be engineered from atomic scale assembly techniques, but existing methods often lack the agility and accuracy to precisely and intelligently control the manufacturing process. Here we…
We show that gated bilayer graphene zigzag ribbons possess a fast and a slow edge, characterized by edge state velocities that differ due to non-negligible next-nearest-neighbor hopping elements. By applying bosonization and renormalization…
In this review, we present recent works on materials whose common point is the presence of electronic bands of very low dispersion, called "flat bands", which are due to specific atomic order effects without electron interactions. These…
We consider plane junctions with graphene electrodes, which are formed by a single-level system ("molecule") placed between the edges of two single-layer graphene half planes. We calculate the edge Green functions of the electrodes and the…
The electronic band structure of crystals is generally influenced by the periodic arrangement of their constituent atoms. Specifically, the emerging two-dimensional (2D) layered structures have shown different band structures with respect…
Recently fabricated two dimensional (2D) phosphorene crystal structures have demonstrated great potential in applications of electronics. Mechanical strain was demonstrated to be able to significantly modify the electronic properties of…
Molecules intercalating two-dimensional (2D) materials form complex structures that have been mostly characterized by spatially averaged techniques. Here we use aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy and…
We investigate WSe$_2$-MoSe$_2$ heterobilayers with different twist angles $\theta \pm \delta$ between the two layers, by low-frequency Raman scattering. In sufficiently aligned samples with $\theta=0^\circ$, or $\theta=60^\circ$, and…
First-principles investigations on the edge energies and edge stresses of single-layer hexagonal boron-nitride (BN) are presented. The armchair edges of BN nanoribbons (BNNRs) are more stable in energy than zigzag ones. Armchair BNNRs are…
We present the results of ab-initio density functional theory based calculations of the stability and reconstruction of zigzag edges in triangular graphene quantum dots. We show that, while the reconstructed pentagon-heptagon zigzag edge…
Recently, moir\'e engineering has been extensively employed for creating and studying novel electronic materials in two dimensions. However, its application in nanophotonic systems has not been widely explored so far. Here, we demonstrate…
We study the role of the edges in determining the features of the topological phase in a quasicrystalline higher order topological insulator. We consider a specific model consisting of two stacked Haldane models with opposite Chern number…
Recent intensive research on two-dimensional materials (2DMs) rekindle the interest in the intercalation of various atoms and molecules into layered compounds as a tool to manufacture 2DMs and tune their optoelectronic, magnetic and…
