Tunable Contact Resistance in Transition Metal Dichalcogenide Lateral Heterojunctions
Adam Pfeifle, Marcelo A. Kuroda
Contact resistance of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides has been shown to decrease in lateral heterojunctions formed with their metallic phases but its origins remain…
Role of quantum confinement and interlayer coupling in CrI-graphene magnetic tunnel junctions
Jonathan J. Heath, Marcio Costa, Marco Buongiorno-Nardelli +1
Recent demonstrations of magnetic ordering and spin transport in two-dimensional heterostructures have opened research venues in these material systems. In order to control and enh…
Anisotropic strain in SmSe and SmTe: implications for electronic transport
Marcelo A. Kuroda, Zhengping Jiang, Michael Povolotskyi +3
Mixed valence rare-earth samarium compounds SmX (X=Se,Te) have been recently proposed as candidate materials for use in high-speed, low-power digital switches driven by stress indu…
Crown Graphene Nanomeshes: Highly Stable Chelation-Doped Semiconducting Materials
Ahmed A. Maarouf, Razvan A. Nistor, Ali Afzali-Ardakani +3
Graphene nanomeshes (GNM's) formed by the creation of pore superlattices in graphene, are a possible route to graphene-based electronics due to their semiconducting properties, inc…
High field electro-thermal transport in metallic carbon nanotubes
Marcelo A. Kuroda, Jean Pierre Leburton
We describe the electro-thermal transport in metallic carbon nanotubes (m-CNTs) by a semi-classical approach that takes into account the high-field dynamical interdependence betwee…
Carrier mean free path and temperature imbalance in mesoscopic wires
Marcelo Kuroda, Jean-Pierre Leburton
Non-coherent electronic transport in metallic nanowires exhibits different carrier temperatures for the non-equilibrium forward and backward populations in the presence of electric…
