Strain- and potential-controlled tunneling in monolayer MoS
Hasna Chnafa, Rachid El Aitouni, Clarence Cortes +2
We present a theoretical study of spin- and valley-resolved quantum transport in monolayer MoS under the combined influence of mechanical strain and an external scalar potentia…
Tuning quantum tunneling in WSe via strain engineering
Rachid El Aitouni, Hasna Chnafa, Clarence Cortes +2
We present a comprehensive theoretical study of strain-engineered quantum transport in monolayer tungsten diselenide (WSe) in the presence of an electrostatic scalar potential.…
Quantum transport in gapped graphene under strain and laser--electrostatic barriers
Hasna Chnafa, Clarence Cortes, David Laroze +1
Electron transport in graphene under a laser-modulated barrier is studied in the presence of an energy gap, a scalar potential, and a uniaxial zigzag strain. The transfer-matrix ap…
Energy-gap--controlled current oscillations in graphene under periodic driving
Hasna Chnafa, Clarence Cortes, David Laroze +1
We investigate the impact of an induced mass term on the current density in graphene subjected to a space- and time-dependent periodic potential . By solving the Dirac…
