Electric control of spin in monolayer WSe2 field effect transistors

Kui Gong, Lei Zhang, Dongping Liu +4

We report a first principles theoretical investigation of quantum transport in monolayer WSe2 field effect transistor (FET). Due to a strong spin-orbit interaction (SOI) and the at…

Nonequilibrium Green's function theory for predicting device-to-device variability

Yu Zhu, Lei Liu, Hong Guo

Due to random dopant fluctuations, the device-to-device variability is a serious challenge to emerging nanoelectronics. In this work we present theoretical formalisms and numerical…

Quantum Transport Theory with the Nonequilibrium Coherent Potentials

Yu Zhu, Lei Liu, Hong Guo

Since any realistic electronic device has some degree of disorder, predicting disorder effects in quantum transport is a critical problem. Here we report the theory of nonequilibri…

Band offset of GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs heterojunctions from atomistic first principles

Yin Wang, Ferdows Zahid, Yu Zhu +3

Using an atomistic first principles approach, we investigate the band offset of the GaAs/AlxGa1-xAs heterojunctions for the entire range of the Al doping concentration 0<x<=1. We a…

A generic tight-binding model for monolayer, bilayer and bulk MoS2

Ferdows Zahid, Lei Liu, Yu Zhu +2

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is a layered semiconductor which has become very important recently as an emerging electronic device material. Being an intrinsic semiconductor the two-…
