Intrinsic spin Hall effect in monolayers of group-VI dichalcogenides: A first-principles study
Wanxiang Feng, Yugui Yao, Wenguang Zhu +3
Using first-principles calculations within density functional theory, we investigate the intrinsic spin Hall effect in monolayers of group-VI transition-metal dichalcogenides MX2 (…
Strain tuning of topological band order in cubic semiconductors
Wanxiang Feng, Wenguang Zhu, Hanno H. Weitering +3
We theoretically explore the possibility of tuning the topological order of cubic diamond/zinc-blende semiconductors with external strain. Based on the tight-binding model, we anal…
Electrical Tuning of Valley Magnetic Moment via Symmetry Control
Sanfeng Wu, Jason S Ross, Grant Aivazian +8
Crystal symmetry governs the nature of electronic Bloch states. For example, in the presence of time reversal symmetry, the orbital magnetic moment and Berry curvature of the Bloch…
Tailoring Magnetic Doping in the Topological Insulator Bi2Se3
Jian-Min Zhang, Wenguang Zhu, Ying Zhang +2
We theoretically investigate the possibility of establishing ferromagnetism in the topological insulator Bi2Se3 via magnetic doping of 3d transition metal elements. The formation e…
