Cr2Ge2Te6 (CrGT) is known as an intrinsic ferromagnetic semiconductor and a promising candidate for phase-change memory applications. In amorphous CrGT, Cr atoms form non-defective octahedral motifs with Te atoms, similar to those in the…
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) exist in various crystal structures with semiconducting, semi-metallic, and metallic properties. The dynamic control of these phases is of immediate interest for next generation electronics such as…
How ordered phases melt in low-dimensional quantum materials remain difficult to resolve because the relevant fluctuations are dynamic and charge neutral. In this work, we show that thermal transport provides a sensitive probe of these…
Structural symmetry of crystals plays important roles in physical properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials, particularly in the nonlinear optics regime. It has been a long-term exploration on the physical properties in 2D materials with…
In this paper, we perform theoretical study on the physical properties of two-dimensional transition metal chalcogenides MX$_{2}$ and M$_{2}$X$_{3}$ (M= Ni, Pd; X= S, Se, Te). These studied materials are classified in three stable phases…
Investigating lateral electrical transport in p-type thin film chalcogenides is important to evaluate their potential for field-effect transistors (FETs) and phase-change memory applications. For instance, p-type FETs with sputtered…
Transition metal dichalcogenides exhibit a wide range of semiconducting, metallic, correlated, and topological electronic states that arise from strong coupling between lattice structure, dimensionality, and electronic degrees of freedom.…
Ge2Sb2Te5 and related phase change materials are highly unusual in that they can be readily transformed between amorphous and crystalline states using very fast melt, quench, anneal cycles, although the resulting states are extremely long…
Recent developments in materials informatics and artificial intelligence has led to the emergence of foundational energy models for material chemistry, as represented by the suite of MACE-based foundation models, bringing a significant…
Materials hosting kagome lattices have drawn interest for the diverse magnetic and electronic states generated by geometric frustration. In the $A$V$_3$Sb$_5$ compounds ($A$ = K, Rb, Cs), stacked vanadium kagome layers give rise to unusual…
The phase-change material antimony sulfide (Sb$_2$S$_3$) relies on rapid and reversible phase transitions between crystalline and amorphous states, which are critical for their performance in data storage and photonics applications. In this…
Engineering phase change materials (PCM) to realize superior data storage devices requires a detailed understanding of crystallization kinetics and its temperature dependence. The temperature dependence of crystallization differs distinctly…
Large-scale simulations on three-dimensional (3D) frustrated anisotropic XY model have been performed to study the nonequilibrium phase transitions of vortex matter in weak random pinning potential in layered superconductors. The…
We investigate the phenomenon of parametric instability in discrete models of spatiotemporally modulated materials. These materials are celebrated in part because they exhibit nonreciprocal transmission characteristics. However, parametric…
We introduce a lattice dynamics package which calculates elastic, thermodynamic and thermal transport properties of crystalline materials from data on their force and potential energy as a function of atomic positions. The data can come…
In the upcoming process to overcome the limitations of the standard von Neumann architecture, synaptic electronics is gaining a primary role for the development of in-memory computing. In this field, Ge-based compounds have been proposed as…
The physical characteristics of the novel chalcogenide MAX phase Hf2SeC have been investigated using the DFT method. The obtained lattice constant and elastic constants (Cij) are compared with previous results to check the consistency of…
Second-harmonic generation (SHG) is a quintessential probe of inversion symmetry breaking in condensed matter. While perturbative $\chi^{(2)}$ processes are well-documented, the nonperturbative regime under intense driving remains largely…
Charge density wave (CDW) is a spontaneous spatial modulation of electric charges in solids whose general microscopic descriptions are yet to be completed. Layered kagome metals of $A$V$_3$Sb$_5$ ($A$ = K, Rb, Cs) provide a unique chance to…
We propose and demonstrate a simple method to accurately monitor and program arbitrary states of partial crystallization in phase-change materials (PCMs). The method relies both on the optical absorption in PCMs as well as on the physics of…
