Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 12Prevalence of Oxygen Defects in an In-Plane Anisotropic Transition Metal Dichalcogenide(American Physical Society, 2020) Plumadore, Ryan; Boddison-Chouinard, Justin; Lopinski, Gregory; Modarresi, Mohsen; Potasz, Pawel; Luican-Mayer, Adina; Başkurt, Mehmet; Şahin, HasanAtomic scale defects in semiconductors enable their technological applications and realization of different quantum states. Using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy complemented by ab initio calculations we determine the nature of defects in the anisotropic van der Waals layered semiconductor ReS2. We demonstrate the in-plane anisotropy of the lattice by directly visualizing chains of rhenium atoms forming diamond-shaped clusters. Using scanning tunneling spectroscopy we measure the semiconducting gap in the density of states. We reveal the presence of lattice defects and by comparison of their topographic and spectroscopic signatures with ab initio calculations we determine their origin as oxygen atoms absorbed at lattice point defect sites. These results provide an atomic-scale view into the semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides, paving the way toward understanding and engineering their properties.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Effects of Interedge Scattering on the Wigner Crystallization in Graphene Nanoribbons(American Physical Society, 2017) Modarresi, Mohsen; Güçlü, Alev DevrimWe investigate the effects of coupling between the two zigzag edges of graphene nanoribbons on the Wigner crystallization of electrons and holes using a combination of tight-binding, mean-field Hubbard and many-body configuration interaction methods. We show that the thickness of the nanoribbon plays a crucial role in the formation of Wigner crystal. For ribbon widths smaller than 16 Å, increased kinetic energy overcomes the long-range Coulomb repulsion and suppresses the Wigner crystallization. For wider ribbons up to 38 Å wide, strong Wigner localization is observed for an even number of electrons, revealing an even-odd effect also found in the Coulomb-blockade addition spectrum. Interedge correlations are found to be strong enough to allow simultaneous crystallization on both edges, although an applied electric field can decouple the two edges. Finally, we show that Wigner crystallization can also occur for holes, albeit weaker than for electrons.Article Citation - WoS: 57Citation - Scopus: 61Electronic and Optical Properties of Bilayer Blue Phosphorus(Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Moğulkoç, Yeşim; Modarresi, Mohsen; Moğulkoç, Aybey; Çiftci, YaseminWe investigate the electronic and optical properties of monolayer and stacking dependent bilayer blue phosphorus in the framework of density functional theory (DFT) and tight-binding approximations. We extract the hopping parameters of TB Hamiltonian for monolayer and bilayer blue phosphorus by using the DFT results. The variation of energy band gap with applied external electric field for two different stacks of bilayer blue phosphorus are also shown. We examine the linear response of the systems due to the external electromagnetic radiation in terms of the dielectric functions in the DFT theory. The relatively large electronic band gap and possibility of exfoliation form bulk structure due to weak interlayer coupling, make blue phosphorus an appropriate candidate for future electronic devices.
