INTERFACE ENGINEERING OF 2D MATERIAL NANODEVICES
Attributing to the large surface-to-volume ration of 2D materials, their electrical performance is highly sensitive to extrinsic factors arising from surface and interface in the device configuration. In this thesis, by adopting crested substrates, high-performance transition metal dichalcogenides …

Semiconductor nanodevices as a probe of strong electron correlations
An electron is usually considered to have only one type of kinetic energy, but could it have more, for both its spin and charge, or by exciting other electrons? In one dimension (1D), the physics of interacting electrons is captured well at low energies by the linear Tomonaga- Luttinger Liquid …

Precise magnetic control of the supercurrent and fluxoids in nanodevices: Memory effects and diode effects
Topological insulators (TIs), when proximity-coupled to s-wave superconductors, are predicted to host Majorana Zero Modes (MZMs), which can be used for topologically protected quantum computing, as introduced by Fu and Kane in 2008. These predictions have since attracted significant attention. …
