Deterministic grayscale nanotopography to engineer mobilities in strained MoS2 FETs

Jürgen Brugger, Nicola Marzari, Andras Kis, Giovanni Boero, Georg Fantner, Xia Liu, Marcos Penedo Garcia, Norma Rivano, Jin Jiang, Berke Erbas

Field-effect transistors (FETs) based on two-dimensional materials (2DMs) with atomically thin channels have emerged as a promising platform for beyond-silicon electronics. However, low carrier mobility in 2DM transistors driven by phonon scattering remain ...

Density functional perturbation theory for one-dimensional systems: Implementation and relevance for phonons and electron-phonon interactions

Nicola Marzari, Norma Rivano

The electronic and vibrational properties and electron-phonon couplings of one-dimensional materials will be key to many prospective applications in nanotechnology. Dimensionality strongly affects these properties and has to be correctly accounted for in f ...

Infrared-active phonons in one-dimensional materials and their spectroscopic signatures

Nicola Marzari, Norma Rivano, Thibault Daniel Pierre Sohier

Dimensionality provides a clear fingerprint on the dispersion of infrared-active, polar-optical phonons. For these phonons, the local dipoles parametrized by the Born effective charges drive the LO-TO splitting of bulk materials; this splitting actually br ...
