Two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors, such as the transition metal dichalcogenides, have demonstrated tremendous promise for the development of highly tunable quantum devices. Realizing this potential requires low-resistance electrical…
We theoretically consider the carrier density tuned (apparent) two-dimensional (2D) metal-insulator-transition (MIT) in semiconductor heterostructure-based 2D carrier systems as arising from a classical percolation phenomenon in the…
We discuss the effect of the dielectric environment (insulators and metal gates) on electronic transport in two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) monolayers. We employ well-known ab initio methods to calculate the…
The possibility of the strong electron-electron interaction driven insulating phase from the metallic phase in two-dimensions has been suggested for clean systems without intentional disorder, but its rigorous demonstration is still…

Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have properties attractive for optoelectronic and quantum applications. A crucial element for devices is the metal-semiconductor interface. However, high contact resistances have…
We present here a simple qualitative model that interpolates between the high and low temperature properties of quasi-1D conductors. At high temperatures we argue that transport is governed by inelastic scattering whereas at low…
Understanding heat transport in low-dimensional and nano-architectured materials remains a central challenge in nonequilibrium statistical physics due to persistent deviations from Fourier's law. These deviations are driven by…
Quantum-confined semiconductor structures are the cornerstone of modern-day electronics. Spatial confinement in these structures leads to formation of discrete low-dimensional subbands. At room temperature, carriers transfer among different…
