Coupled electron-phonon hydrodynamics in two-dimensional semiconductors
Yujie Quan, Bolin Liao
Electronic and thermal transport properties in two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors have been extensively investigated due to their potential to miniaturize transistors. Microscopic…
High-Throughput Search for Photostrictive Materials based on a Thermodynamic Descriptor
Zeyu Xiang, Yubi Chen, Yujie Quan +1
Photostriction is a phenomenon that can potentially improve the precision of light-driven actuation, the sensitivity of photodetection, and the efficiency of optical energy harvest…
Insulator-to-Metal Transition and Anomalously Slow Hot Carrier Cooling in a Photo-doped Mott Insulator
Usama Choudhry, Jin Zhang, Kewen Huang +8
Photo-doped Mott insulators can exhibit novel photocarrier transport and relaxation dynamics and non-equilibrium phases. However, time-resolved real-space imaging of these processe…
Incipient nematicity from electron flat bands in a kagome metal
Nathan Drucker, Thanh Nguyen, Manasi Mandal +16
Engineering new quantum phases requires fine tuning of the electronic, orbital, spin, and lattice degrees of freedom. To this end, the kagome lattice with flat bands has garnered g…
