Influence of Electrostatic Environment on the Proximity Spin-Orbit Coupling in Graphene on Transition-Metal Dichalcogenides

Bert Jorissen, Bart Partoens, Aires Ferreira +1

We investigate the proximity-induced spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in graphene on transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) heterostructures using a tight-binding approach. The tight-bindi…

Bandwidth-Limited Critical Currents in Electrically Tunable Moiré Bands

Riccardo Bertini, Xueqiao Wang, Sergey Slizovskiy +16

Moiré superlattices host narrow minibands whose bandwidth governs correlated and topological phases. Here, we demonstrate that the bandwidth also sets the critical current for the…

Evolution of the Berry curvature dipole in uniaxially strained bilayer graphene

Karel Cuypers, Robin Smeyers, Bert Jorissen +1

While in pristine bilayer graphene the Berry curvature dipole (BCD), a necessary ingredient for the nonlinear anomalous Hall effect, is zero, uniaxial strain can give rise to finit…

Single-photon detection enabled by negative differential conductivity in moiré superlattices

Krystian Nowakowski, Hitesh Agarwal, Sergey Slizovskiy +19

Detecting individual light quanta is essential for quantum information, space exploration, advanced machine vision, and fundamental science. Here, we introduce a novel single photo…

Comparative Analysis of Tight-Binding models for Transition Metal Dichalcogenides

Bert Jorissen, Lucian Covaci, Bart Partoens

We provide a comprehensive analysis of the prominent tight-binding (TB) models for transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) available in the literature. We inspect the construction…

Biaxial strain tuning of exciton energy and polarization in monolayer WS2

G. Kourmoulakis, A. Michail, I. Paradisanos +8

We perform micro-photoluminescence and Raman experiments to examine the impact of biaxial tensile strain on the optical properties of WS2 monolayers. A strong shift on the order of…
