Edge Disorder in Bottom-Up Zigzag Graphene Nanoribbons: Implications for Magnetism and Quantum Electronic Transport
Oleg Yazyev, Kristians Cernevics, Michele Pizzochero
We unveil the nature of the structural disorder in bottom-up zigzag graphene nanoribbons along with its effect on the magnetism and electronic transport on the basis of scanning probe microscopies and first-principles calculations. We find that edge-missin ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2021Semiconducting van der Waals Interfaces as Artificial Semiconductors
Helmuth Berger, Evgeniy Ponomarev
Recent technical progress demonstrates the possibility of stacking together virtually any combination of atomically thin crystals of van der Waals bonded compounds to form new types of heterostructures and interfaces. As a result, there is the need to unde ...
2018Resolving the spin splitting in the conduction band of monolayer MoS2
Andras Kis, Ahmet Avsar, Kolyo Marinov
Time-reversal symmetry and broken spin degeneracy enable the exploration of spin and valley quantum degrees of freedom in monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides. While the strength of the large spin splitting in the valance band of these materials is n ...
Nature Publishing Group2017Electronic Transport in 2D Materials with Strong Spin-orbit Coupling
The thesis describes the computational study of structural, electonic and transport properties of monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) in the stable 2H and the metastable 1T' phases. Several aspects have been covered by the study including the ...
EPFL2017Optically active quantum dots in monolayer WSe2
Andras Kis, Adrien Victor Allain, Dominik Sebastian Lembke, Meinrad Sidler
Semiconductor quantum dots have emerged as promising candidates for the implementation of quantum information processing, because they allow for a quantum interface between stationary spin qubits and propagating single photons(1-3). In the meantime, transi ...
