Electron and Hole Mobilities in Single-Layer WSe2

Adrien Allain, Andras Kis

Single-layer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) WSe2 has recently attracted a lot of attention because it is a 2D semiconductor with a direct band-gap. Due to low doping levels…

Piezoresistivity and Strain-induced Band Gap Tuning in Atomically Thin MoS2

Sajedeh Manzeli, Adrien Allain, Amirhossein Ghadimi +1

The bandgap of MoS2 is highly strain-tunable which results in the modulation of its electrical conductivity and manifests itself as the piezoresistive effect while a piezoelectric…

Collapse of superconductivity in a hybrid tin-graphene Josephson junction array

Zheng Han, Adrien Allain, Hadi Arjmandi-Tash +4

When a Josephson junction array is built with hybrid superconductor/metal/superconductor junctions, a quantum phase transition from a superconducting to a two-dimensional (2D) meta…

Electrical Control of the Superconducting-to-Insulating Transition in Graphene/Metal Hybrids

Adrien Allain, Zheng Han, Vincent Bouchiat

Graphene is a sturdy and chemically inert material exhibiting an exposed two-dimensional electron gas of high mobility. These combined properties enable the design of graphene comp…
