Orbital memory from individual Fe atoms on black phosphorus
Brian Kiraly, Elze J. Knol, Alexander N. Rudenko +2
Bistable valency in individual atoms presents a new approach toward single-atom memory, as well as a building block to create tunable and stochastic multi-well energy landscapes. Y…
Plasmon-driven motion of an individual molecule
Tzu-Chao Hung, Brian Kiraly, Julian H. Strik +2
We demonstrate that nanocavity plasmons generated a few nanometers away from a molecule can induce molecular motion. For this, we study the well-known rapid shuttling motion of zin…
Moiré induced electronic structure modifications in monolayer VS on Au(111)
Umut Kamber, Sahar Pakdel, Raluca-Maria Stan +11
There is immense interest in how the local environment influences the electronic structure of materials at the single layer limit. We characterize moiré induced spatial variations…
Anisotropic two-dimensional screening at the surface of black phosphorus
Brian Kiraly, Elze J. Knol, Klara Volckaert +8
Screening in reduced dimensions has strong consequences on the electronic properties in van der Waals semiconductors, impacting the quasiparticle band gap and exciton binding energ…
An orbitally derived single-atom magnetic memory
Brian Kiraly, Alexander N. Rudenko, Werner M. J. van Weerdenburg +3
A single magnetic atom on a surface epitomizes the scaling limit for magnetic information storage. Indeed, recent work has shown that individual atomic spins can exhibit magnetic r…
