The transition metal dichalcogenide 1T-TaS$_2$ is well known to harbor a rich variety of charge density wave (CDW) distortions which are correlated with underlying lattice atom modulations. The long range CDW phases extend throughout the…
Plasmons in low dimensional materials provide a powerful platform for nanoscale control of light matter interactions, yet strategies to tailor their coherence and dissipation remain limited. Here, we demonstrate that transition metal…
The natural van der Waals heterostructure 4H$_b$-TaS$_2$ composed of alternating 1T- and 1H-TaS$_2$ layers serves as a platform for investigating the electronic correlations and layer-dependent properties of novel quantum materials. The…
Coexistence of localized and extended excitations is central to the macroscopic properties of correlated materials. For 5d transition metal compounds, electron correlations alone generally do not lead to a metal-insulator (Mott) transition,…
Displacement fields are one of the main tuning knobs employed to engineer flat electronic band dispersions in twisted van der Waals multilayers. Here, we show that electric fields can also be used to tune the phonon dispersion of moir\'e…
This is the first study of the effect of pressure on transition metal dichalcogenides intercalated by atoms that order magnetically. Co$_{1/3}$NbS$_2$ is a layered system where the intercalated Co atoms order antiferromagnetically at T$_N$…
Van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures have attracted great interest because of their rich material combinations.The discovery of two-dimensional magnets has provided a new platform for magnetic vdW heterointerfaces; however, research on…
Coulomb interaction between electrons lies at the heart of magnetism in solids. In contrast to conventional two-dimensional (2D) systems, electrons in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) possess coupled spin and valley degrees…
Metal-insulator transitions involve a mix of charge, spin, and structural degrees of freedom, and when strongly-correlated, can underlay the emergence of exotic quantum states. Mott insulators induced by the opening of a Coulomb gap are an…
Bilayer van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures such as MoS2/WS2 and MoSe2/WSe2 have attracted much attention recently, particularly because of their type II band alignments and the formation of interlayer exciton as the lowest-energy…
Magnetic van der Waals (vdW) materials are promising for memory and logic applications because of their highly tunable magnetic properties and compatibility with vdW heterostructure devices. However, in conventional plan-view measurements,…
Recent advancements have established self-intercalation as a powerful technique for manipulating quantum material properties, with precisely controllable intercalation concentrations. Given the inherently rich phase diagrams of transition…
We investigate the role of long-range Coulomb interactions in $M$-valley moir\'es using the self-consistent Hartree-Fock approximation. This platform was recently proposed [Nature 643, 376 (2025) and arXiv:2411.18828 (2024)] as a new class…
The layered $3d$ transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) CoTe$_2$ is a topological Dirac Type-II metal. However, the Co $3d$-bands in CoTe$_2$ do not exhibit the expected correlation-induced band narrowing seen in CoO. We address this…
We study in-plane lateral heterostructures of commensurate transition-metal dichalcogenides, such as MoS$_{2}$-WS$_{2}$ and MoSe$_{2}$-WSe$_{2}$, and find interfacial and edge states that are highly localized to these regions of the…
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are a branch of two-dimensional materials which in addition to having an easy-to-exfoliate layered structure, also host semiconducting, metallic, superconducting, and topological properties in various…
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) hold relevance for spin-triplet superconducting phases due to their inherent Ising spin-orbit coupling, but the majority of studies have so far focused on oversimplified models. In this work, we…
We present a comprehensive investigation of the magnetic properties of stage-1 graphite intercalated FeCl$_3$ using a combination of DC and AC magnetic susceptibility, thermoremanent magnetization and field dependent magnetization…
Sharp magnetization switching and large magnetoresistance were previously discovered in single crystals of 2H-Fe$_x$TaS$_2$ and attributed to the Fe superstructure and its defects. We report similar sharp switching in 1T-Fe$_x$TiS$_2$…
We report a systematic study of the composition-dependent bulk properties in $Co_{1/3(1\pm\delta)}NbS_{2}$ single crystals across a series of precisely controlled cobalt compositions with -4%<$\delta$<8%. By tuning the cobalt stoichiometry,…
