Layered tin monoxide (SnO) offers an exciting two-dimensional (2D) semiconducting system with great technological potential for next-generation electronics and photocatalytic applications. Using a combination of first-principles simulations…
Layered materials that exhibit magnetic ordering in their pristine form are very rare. Several standard approaches, such as adsorption of atoms, introduction of point defects, and edge engineering, have been developed to induce magnetism in…
The evolution of the electronic structures of strongly correlated insulators with doping has long been a central fundamental question in condensed matter physics; it is also of great practical relevance for applications. We have studied the…
Successful doping of single-layer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) remains a formidable barrier to their incorporation into a range of technologies. We use density functional theory to study doping of molybdenum and tungsten…
MnBi2Te4 and MnBi4Te7 are intrinsic antiferromagnetic topological insulators, offering a promising materials platform for realizing exotic topological quantum states. However, high densities of intrinsic defects in these materials not only…
The electronic structure of the intercalated iron-based superconductor Ba2Ti2Fe2As4O (Tc - 21.5 K) has been investigated by using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and combined local density approximation and dynamical mean field…
A combined experimental and theoretical study of doping individual Fe atoms into Bi2Se3 is presented. It is shown through a scanning tunneling microscopy study that single Fe atoms initially located at hollow sites on top of the surface…
The \emph{p}-type Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$ is much desirable as a promising thermoelectric material and topological insulator, while the naturally grown Bi$_{2}$Se$_{3}$ is always \emph{n}-type doped by native point defects. Here we use…
van der Waals stacking of two-dimensional (2D) materials offers a powerful platform for engineering material interfaces with tailored electronic and optical properties. While most van der Waals multilayers have featured inorganic…
A microscopic theory is presented for the observed electronic disorder in superconducting Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+\delta}$. The essential phenomenology is shown to be consistent with the existence of two types of interstitial oxygen…
Dopability in semiconductors plays a crucial role in device performance. Using the first-principles density-functional theory calculations, we investigate systematically the doping properties of layered MX2 (M= Mo, W; X=S, Te) by replacing…
The binary Bi-chalchogenides, Bi2Ch3, are widely regarded as model examples of a recently discovered new form of quantum matter, the three-dimensional topological insulator (TI) [1-4]. These compounds host a single spin-helical surface…
Ferroelectric hafnia (HfO2) holds promise for next-generation memory and logic applications because of its CMOS compatibility. However, the high coercive field required for polarization switching in HfO2 remains a critical challenge for…
Application of a significantly large bias voltage to small Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x mesa structures leads to persistent doping of the mesas. Here we employ this effect for analysis of the doping dependence of the electronic spectra of Bi-2212 single…
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are two-dimensional (2D) materials with remarkable electrical, optical and chemical properties. One promising strategy to tailor TMD properties of TMDs is to create alloys through dopant-induced…
Topological insulators embody a new state of matter characterized entirely by the topological invariants of the bulk electronic structure rather than any form of spontaneously broken symmetry. Unlike the 2D quantum Hall or quantum…
A two-dimensional topological insulator (2DTI) is guaranteed to have a helical 1D edge mode in which spin is locked to momentum, producing the quantum spin Hall effect and prohibiting elastic backscattering at zero magnetic field. No…
We present a tight-binding (TB) model and $\mathbf{k\cdot p}$ theory for electrons in monolayer and few-layer InSe. The model is constructed from a basis of all $s$ and $p$ valence orbitals on both indium and selenium atoms, with…
Despite the highly porous nature with significantly large surface area, metal organic frameworks (MOFs) can be hardly used in electronic, and optoelectronic devices due to their extremely poor electrical conductivity. Therefore, the study…
We report a globally reversible effect of electronic tuning on the magnetic phase diagram in CeCoIn_{5} driven by electron (Pt and Sn) and hole (Cd, Hg) doping. Consequently, we are able to extract the superconducting pair breaking…
