Here we show that twisted graphene trilayer made by misoriented stacking a graphene monolayer on top of a Bernal graphene bilayer can exhibit rich and tailored electronic properties. For the case that the graphene monolayer and bilayer are…
For applications exploiting the valley pseudospin degree of freedom in transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers, efficient preparation of electrons or holes in a single valley is essential. Here, we show that a magnetic field of 7 Tesla…
The switching of electric polarization induced by electric fields -a fundamental functionality of ferroelectrics- is closely associated with the motions of the domain walls that separate regions with distinct polarization directions.…
It is shown that potential barriers in bilayer graphene (BLG) and monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) can split a valley unpolarized incident current into reflected and transmitted currents with opposite valley polarization.…
At the 2D limit, hexagonal systems such as monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and graphene exhibit unique coupled spin and momentum-valley physics (valley pseudospin) owing to broken spatial inversion symmetry and strong…
In addition to electron charge and spin, novel materials host another degree of freedom, the valley. For a junction composed of valley filter sandwiched by two normal terminals, we focus on the valley efficiency under disorder with two…
Electric polarization and metallicity are long believed not to coexist until the emergence of exceptionally rare material examples including the bulk polar metals and more recently two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) materials such as…
$\require{mediawiki-texvc}$ We demonstrate that the low symmetry of armchair lateral heterojunction between transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers allows for the mixing of $\mathbf{K}_+$ and $\mathbf{K}_-$ valleys. From the tight…
We have investigated the steady-sate valley polarization and valley coherence of encapsulated MoS2 monolayer as a function of the temperature and the power density with a continuous wave laser excitation. Both valley polarization and…
The weak localization correction to the conductivity in coupled double layer structures is studied both experimentally and theoretically. Statistics of closed paths has been obtained from the analysis of magnetic field and temperature…
2D materials with valley-related multiple Hall effect are both fundamentally intriguing and practically appealing to explore novel phenomena and applications, but have been largely overlooked up to date. Here, using first-principles…
Two-dimensional(2D) multiferroic materials hold significant promise for advancing the miniaturization and integration of nanodevices. In this study, we demonstrate that 2D bilayer ScI2, which exhibits ferromagnetic(FM) ordering within each…
Single layers of transition metal dichalcogenides are two-dimensional direct bandgap semiconductors with degenerate, but inequivalent, `valleys' in the electronic structure that can be selectively excited by polarized light. Coherent…
We show that excitons and free carriers in K and K' valleys of transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers can be entangled with respect to their valley degree of freedom by absorbing linearly polarized single photons. This effect does not…
We investigate the valley relaxation due to intervalley coupling in a single-electron bilayer graphene quantum dot. The valley relaxation is assisted by both the emission of acoustic phonons via the deformation potential and bond-length…
Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) offer new opportunities for realizing quantum dots (QDs) in the ultimate two-dimensional (2D) limit. Given the rich control possibilities of electron valley pseudospin discovered in the…
Electron's tunneling through potential barrier in monolayer and bilayer graphene lattices is investigated by using full tight-binding model. Emphasis is placed on the resonance tunneling feature and inter-valley scattering probability. It…
Monolayers of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides exhibit intriguing fundamental physics of strongly coupled spin and valley degrees of freedom for charge carriers. While the possibility of exploiting these properties for…
Coupling between exciton states across the Brillouin zone in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides can lead to ultrafast valley depolarization. Using time- and angle-resolved photoemission, we present momentum- and energy-resolved…
Valley-contrasting Hall transport conventionally relies on the inversion symmetry breaking in two-dimensional systems, which greatly limits the selection range of valley materials. In particular, while monolayer transition metal…
