Visualization of vortex sheets and half quantum vortices in the chiral odd-parity superconductor UPt
P. García-Campos, V. O. Dolocan, M. -K. Arfaoui +3
Superconductivity is characterized by vanishing electrical resistance and magnetic flux expulsion. For conventional type II superconductors, the magnetic flux expulsion is incomple…
Fast Interlayer Energy Transfer from the Lower Bandgap MoS2 to the Higher Bandgap WS2
Gayatri, Mehdi Arfaoui, Debashish Das +9
Energy transfer (ET) is a dipole-dipole interaction, mediated by the virtual photon. Traditionally, ET happens from the higher (donor) to lower bandgap (acceptor) material. However…
Twisted MoSe2 Homobilayer Behaving as a Heterobilayer
Arka Karmakar, Abdullah Al-Mahboob, Natalia Zawadzka +11
Heterostructures (HSs) formed by the transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) materials have shown great promise in next-generation optoelectronic and photonic applications. An art…
The optical absorption in indirect semiconductor to semimetal PtSe2 arises from direct transitions
Marin Tharrault, Sabrine Ayari, Mehdi Arfaoui +12
is a van der Waals material transitioning from an indirect bandgap semiconductor to a semimetal with increasing thickness. Its absorption threshold has been conjectur…
