Strain is powerful for discovery and manipulation of new phases of matter; however, the elastic strains accessible to epitaxial films and bulk crystals are typically limited to small ($<2\%$), uniform, and often discrete values. This…
The spin and valley polarizations and plasmonics in Van der Waals heterostructures of strained graphene monolayer on 2D transition metal dichalcogenide (GrTMD) substrate are reported in this communication. The substrate induced interactions…
Van der Waals single-layer materials are characterized by an inherent extremely low bending rigidity and therefore are prone to nanoscale structural modifications due to substrate interactions. Such interactions can induce excess charge…
Wetting behaviour of surfaces is believed to be affected by van der Waals (vdW) forces, however, there is no clear demonstration of this. With the isolation of two-dimensional vdW layered materials it is possible to test this hypothesis. In…
Weyl semimetals are a class of topological semimetals defined by a Chern number as their topological invariant. These materials exhibit unique properties, such as transverse topological currents and anomalous magnetoelectric responses,…
Charge-density waves (CDWs) in Weyl semimetals (WSMs) have been shown to induce an exotic axionic insulating phase in which the sliding mode (phason) of the CDW acts as a dynamical axion field, giving rise to a large positive…
Van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures, which are produced by the precise assemblies of varieties of two-dimensional (2D) materials, have demonstrated many novel properties and functionalities. Here we report a nano-plasmonic study of vdW…
Two-dimensional magnetic van der Waals (vdW) materials can show a variety of topological nontrivial spin textures, such as Bloch- or N\'eel-type stripe, skyrmion or bubble domains under certain external stimuli. It is critical to understand…
Van der Waals (vdW) ferromagnetic materials are rapidly establishing themselves as effective building blocks for next generation spintronic devices. When layered with non-magnetic vdW materials, such as graphene and/or topological…
By means of atomistic tight-binding calculations, we investigate the effects of uniaxial strain on the electronic bandstructure of twisted graphene bilayer. We find that the bandstructure is dramatically deformed and the degeneracy of the…
The fascinating realm of strain engineering and wetting transitions in two-dimensional (2D) materials takes place when placed on a two-dimensional array of nanopillars or one-dimensional rectangular grated substrates. Our investigation…
In van der Waals heterostructures, electronic bands of two-dimensional (2D) materials, their nontrivial topology, and electron-electron interactions can be dramatically changed by a moire pattern induced by twist angles between different…
The effects of strains on the low-energy electronic properties of double-Weyl phases are studied in solids and cold-atom optical lattices. The principal finding is that deformations do not couple, in general, to the low-energy effective…
When considering transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) in van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures for periodic ab-initio calculations, usually, lattice mismatch is present, and the TMDC needs to be strained. In this study we provide a…
In this article we review recent work on van der Waals (vdW) systems in which at least one of the components has strong spin-orbit coupling. We focus on a selection of vdW heterostructures to exemplify the type of interesting electronic…
We investigate van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures made of germanene, stanene or silicene with hexagonal Boron Nitride (h-BN). The intriguing topological properties of these buckled honeycomb materials can be maintained and further…
Controlling magnetism in low dimensional materials is essential for designing devices that have feature sizes comparable to several critical length scales that exploit functional spin textures, allowing the realization of low-power…
Antimonene has attracted much attention for its high carrier mobility and suitable band gap for electronic, optoelectronic, and even spintronic devices. To tailor its properties for such applications, strain engineering may be adopted.…
We evaluate the van der Waals (vdW) interaction energy at zero temperature between two undoped strained graphene layers separated by a finite distance. We consider the following three models for the anisotropic case: (a) where one of the…
Magnetic skyrmions $-$ localized chiral spin structures $-$ show great promise for spintronic applications. The recent discovery of two-dimensional (2D) magnetic materials opened new opportunities for exploring such topological spin…
