Enhanced superconductivity in few-layer TaS due to healing by oxygenation

J. Bekaert, E. Khestanova, D. G. Hopkinson +15

When approaching the atomically thin limit, defects and disorder play an increasingly important role in the properties of two-dimensional materials. Superconductivity is generally…

Gate tunable giant anisotropic resistance in ultra-thin GaTe

Hanwen Wang, Mao-Lin Chen, Mengjian Zhu +19

In crystals, the duplication of atoms often follows different periodicity along different directions. It thus gives rise to the so called anisotropy, which is usually even more pro…

Unusual suppression of the superconducting energy gap and critical temperature in atomically thin NbSe2

Ekaterina Khestanova, John Birkbeck, Mengjian Zhu +12

It is well known that superconductivity in thin films is generally suppressed with decreasing thickness. This suppression is normally governed by either disorder-induced localizati…

Edge currents shunt the insulating bulk in gapped graphene

M. J. Zhu, A. V. Kretinin, M. D. Thompson +13

An energy gap can be opened in the electronic spectrum of graphene by lifting its sublattice symmetry. In bilayers, it is possible to open gaps as large as 0.2 eV. However, these g…
