InSe, a member of the layered materials family, is a superior electronic and optical material which retains a direct bandgap feature from the bulk to atomically thin few-layers and high electronic mobility down to a single layer limit. We,…

The ability to control excitons in semiconductors underlies numerous proposed applications, from excitonic circuits for computing and communications to polariton condensates to energy transport in photovoltaics. 2D semiconductors are…

We present a rigorous analysis that combines theory, simulation, and experimental measurements to quantify the relationship between strain and bandgap in two dimensional gallium selenide (Ga$_2$Se$_2$). Experimentally, we transfer thin…

Strain engineering is a powerful tool for tuning physical properties of 2D materials, including monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) -- direct bandgap semiconductors with strong excitonic response. Here, we demonstrate an…

The ultrathin nature and dangling bonds free surface of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors allow for significant modifications of their band gap through strain engineering. Here, thin InSe photodetector devices are biaxially stretched,…

Strain provides a powerful knob to tailor the electronic properties of semiconductors. Simple yet accurate approximations that capture strain effects in demanding simulations of mesoscopic nanostructures are therefore highly desirable.…

Complementary to the development of highly three-dimensional (3D) integrated circuits in the continuation of Moore's law, there has been a growing interest in new 3D deformation strategies to improve device performance. To continue this…

The bandgap of MoS2 is highly strain-tunable which results in the modulation of its electrical conductivity and manifests itself as the piezoresistive effect while a piezoelectric effect was also observed in odd-layered MoS2 with broken…

We report direct measurements of the spin-orbit interaction induced spin-splitting in a modulation-doped GaAs two-dimensional hole system as a function of anisotropic, in-plane strain. The change in spin-subband densities reveals a…
