The electronic properties of graphene, a two-dimensional crystal of carbon atoms, are
exceptionally novel. For instance, the low-energy quasiparticles in graphene behave as …

Beginning with an introduction to carbon-based nanomaterials, their electronic properties,
and general concepts in quantum transport, this detailed primer describes the most effective …

We demonstrate theoretically how local strains in graphene can be tailored to generate a
valley-polarized current. By suitable engineering of local strain profiles, we find that …

In two-dimensional crystals of transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDC) having strong spin-
orbit interaction such as monolayer WSe 2, quantum states can be labeled by a valley index …

Could a laser field lead to the much sought-after tunable band gaps in graphene? By using
Floquet theory combined with Green's functions techniques, we predict that a laser field in …

We propose a simple, yet highly efficient and robust device for producing valley polarized
current in graphene. The device comprises of two distinct components; a region of uniform …

Despite much anticipation of valleytronics as a candidate to replace the aging
complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) based information processing, its …

Realization of permanent valley polarization in Cr-doped monolayer MoS2 is found to be
unfeasible because of extended moment formation. Introduction of an additional hole is …

We have laid out the results of a rigorous theoretical investigation into the response of
electron dressed states, ie, interacting Floquet states arising from the off-resonant coupling …

Dirac and Weyl materials refer to a class of solid materials which host low-energy
quasiparticle excitations that can be described by the Dirac and Weyl equations in relativistic …
