Tuning of exciton type by environmental screening

Igor L. C. Lima, M. V. Milošević, F. M. Peeters +1

We theoretically investigate the binding energy and electron-hole (e-h) overlap of excitonic states confined at the interface between two-dimensional materials with type-II band al…

Ultrasensitive acoustic graphene plasmons in a graphene-transition metal dichalcogenide heterostructure: strong plasmon-phonon coupling and wavelength sensitivity enhanced by a metal screen

Ícaro R. Lavora, Z. H. Tao, H. M. Dongd +3

Acoustic plasmons in graphene exhibit strong confinement induced by a proximate metal surface and hybridize with phonons of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) when these mater…

Tunable coupling of terahertz Dirac plasmons and phonons in transition metal dicalchogenide-based van der Waals heterostructures

I. R. Lavor, Andrey Chaves, F. M. Peeters +1

Dirac plasmons in graphene hybridize with phonons of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) when the materials are combined in so-called van der Waals heterostructures (vdWh), thu…

Effect of zitterbewegung on the propagation of wave packets in ABC-stacked multilayer graphene: an analytical and computational approach

I. R. Lavor, D. R. da Costa, Andrey Chaves +4

The time evolution of a low-energy two-dimensional Gaussian wave packet in ABC-stacked -layer graphene (ABC-NLG) is investigated. Expectation values of the position of c…

Valley filtering using electrostatic potentials in bilayer graphene

D. R. da Costa, A. Chaves, S. H. R. Sena +2

Propagation of an electron wave packet through a quantum point contact (QPC) defined by electrostatic gates in bilayer graphene is investigated. The gates provide a bias between th…

Anisotropic exciton Stark shift in black phosphorus

Andrey Chaves, T. Low, P. Avouris +2

We calculate the excitonic spectrum of few-layer black phosphorus by direct diagonalization of the effective mass Hamiltonian in the presence of an applied in-plane electric field.…

Energy levels of triangular and hexagonal graphene quantum dots: a comparative study between the tight-binding and the Dirac approach

M. Zarenia, A. Chaves, G. A. Farias +1

The Dirac equation is solved for triangular and hexagonal graphene quantum dots for different boundary conditions in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field. We analyze the…
