Magnetically induced Circular Photogalvanic Effect in Symmetric Two-dimensional Materials
Peng Liu, Fanhao Jia, Ruixue Li +3
Photocurrents that depend on the helicity of the incident light can be generated in both bulk and low-dimensional materials lacking inversion symmetry, known as the circular photog…
Two-dimensional magnetic tunnel p-n junctions for low-power electronics
Wenkai Zhu, Ziao Wang, Tiangui Hu +13
For decades, semiconductors and their heterostructures have underpinned both fundamental and applied research across all areas of electronics. Two-dimensional, 2D (atomically thin)…
Movable Dirac Points with Ferroelectrics: Kink States and Berry Curvature Dipoles
Konstantin S. Denisov, Yuntian Liu, Igor Žutić
Two-dimensional (2D) Dirac states and Dirac points with linear dispersion are the hallmark of graphene, topological insulators, semimetals, and superconductors. Lowering a symmetry…
Symmetry Classification for Alternating Excitons in Two-Dimensional Altermagnets
Jiayu David Cao, Konstantin S. Denisov, Yuntian Liu +1
Excitons, bound electron-holes states, often dominate the optical response of two-dimensional (2D) materials and reflect their inherent properties, including spin-orbit coupling, m…
