As an approximation to the quantum state of solids, the band theory, developed nearly
seven decades ago, fostered the advance of modern integrated solid‐state electronics, one …

The analysis of the electronic properties of strained or lattice deformed graphene combines
ideas from classical condensed matter physics, soft matter, and geometrical aspects of …

We presentk p· Hamiltonians parametrized byab initiodensity functional theory calculations
to describe the dispersion of the valence and conduction bands at their extrema (theK, Q, Γ …

Monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides have recently emerged as possible candidates
for valleytronic applications, as the spin and valley pseudospin are directly coupled and …

We derive an effective Hamiltonian that describes the dynamics of electrons in the
conduction band of monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC) in the presence of …

We investigate the valley depolarization due to the electron-hole exchange interaction in
monolayer MoS 2. Both the long-and short-range parts of the intra-and intervalley electron …

Single‐and few‐layer transition metal dichalcogenides have recently emerged as a new
family of layered crystals with great interest, not only from the fundamental point of view, but …

A robust valley polarization is a key prerequisite for exploiting valley pseudospin to carry
information in next-generation electronics and optoelectronics. Although monolayer …

Strain engineering has emerged as a powerful tool to modify the optical and electronic
properties of two-dimensional crystals. Here we perform a systematic study of strained …

In monolayer (1L) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) the valence and conduction
bands are spin-split because of the strong spin–orbit interaction. In tungsten-based TMDs …
