Large-scale Integration of Experimental and Computational Data for 2D Materials
Mohammad A. Akhound, Tara M. Boland, Mikkel O. Sauer +19
The past decade has seen rapid growth in the number of experimentally realized two-dimensional (2D) materials with diverse chemical and physical properties. However, information on…
Breaking Peierls theorem in polyacetylene chains via topological design
Xinnan Peng, Marco Lozano, Jie Su +11
Peierls theorem postulates that a one-dimensional (1D) metallic chain must undergo a metal-to-insulator transition via lattice distortion, resulting in bond length alternation (BLA…
Designer polyradical nanographenes with strong spin entanglement and perturbation resilience via Clar's goblet extension
En Li, Manish Kumar, Xinnan Peng +9
Polyradical nanographenes featuring strong spin entanglement and robust many-body spin states against external magnetic perturbations not only enable the exploration of correlated…
Visualization of Strain-Induced Landau Levels in a Graphene - Black Phosphorus Heterostructure
Thi-Hai-Yen Vu, Pin Lyu, Na Hyun Jo +8
Strain-induced pseudo magnetic fields offer the possibility of realizing zero magnetic field Quantum Hall effect in graphene, possibly up to room temperature, representing a promis…
Slow, Nanometer Light Confinement Observed in Atomically Thin TaS2
Hue T. B. Do, Meng Zhao, Pengfei Li +9
Extreme light confinement down to the atomic scale has been theoretically predicted for ultrathin, Ta-based transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). In this work, we experimentally…
1D flat bands in phosphorene nanoribbons with pentagonal nature
Shuo Sun, Jing-Yang You, Zhihao Cai +16
Materials with flat bands can serve as a promising platform to investigate strongly interacting phenomena. However, experimental realization of ideal flat bands is mostly limited t…
