Van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures provide a rich playground to engineer electronic, spin, and optical properties of individual two-dimensional materials. We investigate the twist-angle and gate dep
Anomalous gating effects—such as ineffective electrostatic control and strong hysteresis in resistance-have been observed in graphene-based systems encapsulated in boron nitride (BN) and linked to a p
Opening a band gap in bilayer graphene (BLG) is of significance for potential applications in graphene-based electronic and photonic devices. Here, we report the generation of a sizable band gap in BL
By using 2D materials heterostructures it is possible to exploit the properties of both materials at the interface, for instance, spin-dependent transport for application in spintronic devices. Here,
