We consider single band of conduction electrons interacting with displacements of the transitional ions. In the classical regime strong enough coupling transforms the harmonic elastic energy for an ion to the one of the well with two deep…
It was generally assumed that weak van der Waals interactions exist between neighboring layers in the two-dimensional group-IV chalcogenides. Using PbSe as a prototypal example, however, we find additional strong coupling between the Pb-Pb…
Studying the reason, why single-layer molybdenum disulfide (MoS$_2$) appears to fall short of its promising potential in flexible nanoelectronics, we found that the nature of contacts plays a more important role than the semiconductor…
Low-dimensional electron systems, as realized naturally in graphene or created artificially at the interfaces of heterostructures, exhibit a variety of fascinating quantum phenomena with great prospects for future applications. Once…
We theoretically consider temperature and density-dependent electron-phonon interaction induced many-body effects in the two-dimensional (2D) metallic carriers confined on the surface of the 3D topological insulator (e.g. Bi$_2$Se$_3$). We…
Platinum diselenide (PtSe2) is an exciting new member of the two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) family. it has a semimetal to semiconductor transition when approaching monolayer thickness and has already shown…
Thin organic films and two-dimensional (2D) molecular assemblies on solid surfaces yield the potential for applications in molecular electronics, optoelectronics, catalysis, and sensing. These applications rely on the intrinsic electronic…
We investigate the emergence of ferromagnetism in the two-dimensional metal-halide CoBr$_2$, with a special focus on the role of electronic correlations. The calculated phonon spectrum shows that the system is thermodynamically stable…
The transport of fluids at the nanoscale is fundamental to manifold biological and industrial processes, ranging from neurotransmission to ultrafiltration. Yet, it is only recently that well-controlled channels with cross-sections as small…
Recently, the celebrated Keldysh potential has been widely used to describe the Coulomb interaction of few-body complexes in monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides. Using this potential to model charged excitons (trions), one finds a…
We have developed a technique that dramatically reduces the contact resistances and depletes a shunting channel between the contacts outside the Hall bar in ultra-high mobility SiGe/Si/SiGe heterostructures. It involves the creation of…
Recent cold atom experiments have observed bad and strange metal behaviors in strongly-interacting Fermi-Hubbard systems. Motivated by these results, we calculate the thermoelectric transport properties of a 2D Fermi-Hubbard system in the…
Correlations between electrons and the effective dimensionality are crucial factors that shape the properties of an interacting electron system. For example, the onsite Coulomb repulsion, U, may inhibit, or completely block the intersite…
A multiscale simulation approach is developed to simulate the contact transport properties between semimetal to a monolayer two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) semiconductor. The results elucidate the mechanisms for…
Transition metal dichalcogenides are rich in their structural phases, e.g. 1T-TaS2 and 1T-TaSe2 form charge density wave (CDW) under low temperature with interesting and exotic properties. Here, we present a systematic study of different…
Fermi liquid theory has been a foundation in understanding the electronic properties of materials. For weakly interacting two-dimensional (2D) electron or hole systems, electron-electron interactions are known to introduce quantum…
We measured the I(V) and dV/dI(V) characteristics of TiTe2-based point contacts (PCs) from room to helium temperatures. Features indicating the emergence of a charge density wave (CDW) were detected. They represent symmetrical relatively…
The properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials have been extensively studied and applied in various applications. Our interest is to theoretically investigate the thermal transport and thermoelectric properties of the 2D transition metal…
The interface between two-dimensional semiconductors and metal contacts is an important topic of research of nanoelectronic devices based on two-dimensional semiconducting materials such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS2). We report transport…
This study illustrates the nature of electronic transport and its transition from one mechanism to another between a metal electrode and MoS2 channel interface in a field effect transistor (FET) device. Interestingly, measurements of the…
