Large potential steps at weakly interacting metal-insulator interfaces
Menno Bokdam, Geert Brocks, Paul J. Kelly
Potential steps exceeding 1 eV are regularly formed at metal|insulator interfaces, even when the interaction between the materials at the interface is weak physisorption. From firs…
Schottky barriers at hexagonal boron nitride/metal interfaces: a first principles study
Menno Bokdam, Geert Brocks, Mikhail I. Katsnelson +1
The formation of a Schottky barrier at the interface between a metal and hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is studied using density functional theory. For metals whose work functions…
Band gaps in incommensurable graphene on hexagonal boron nitride
Menno Bokdam, Taher Amlaki, Geert Brocks +1
Devising ways of opening a band gap in graphene to make charge-carrier masses finite is essential for many applications. Recent experiments with graphene on hexagonal boron nitride…
