van der Waals Nanochemical Reactors. [PDF]
Nano LettSynthesizing single crystals suitable for quantum electronic discoveries remains challenging for many emerging materials. We introduce van der Waals (vdW) stacks as nanochemical reactors for single-crystal synthesis and demonstrate their broad applicability in growing both elemental and compound crystals at the micrometer scale.

Softness of hydrated salt crystals under deliquescence
Nature Communications, 2023 Crystalline solids are commonly associated with their hard and faceted nature. Here, the authors report the transition from hard to soft and deformable, observed in the gradual dissolution of salt crystals that harbor water in their crystalline framework.

Van der Waals heterostructures [PDF]
Nature, 2013 Research on graphene and other two-dimensional atomic crystals is intense and likely to remain one of the hottest topics in condensed matter physics and materials science for many years. Looking beyond this field, isolated atomic planes can also be reassembled into designer heterostructures made layer by layer in a precisely chosen sequence. The first -

Scientific Reports, 2022 The charging of poorly conducting liquids due to flows is a well-known phenomenon, yet the precise charging mechanism is not fully understood. This is especially relevant for sprays, where the spray plume dynamics and maximum distance travelled of a ...

Emergence of a Non‐Van der Waals Magnetic Phase in a Van der Waals Ferromagnet
Small, 2023 AbstractManipulation of long‐range order in 2D van der Waals (vdW) magnetic materials (e.g., CrI3, CrSiTe3 ,etc.), exfoliated in few‐atomic layer, can be achieved via application of electric field, mechanical‐constraint, interface engineering, or even by chemical substitution/doping.

Predicting frictional aging from bulk relaxation measurements
Nature Communications, 2023 The coefficient of static friction between solids normally increases with the time they have remained in static contact before the measurement. This phenomenon, known as frictional aging, is at the origin of the difference between static and dynamic ...

Gate-tunable quantum pathways of high harmonic generation in graphene
Nature Communications, 2022 Under strong laser fields, materials exhibit extreme non-linear optical response, such as high harmonic generation. These higher harmonics provide insights into electron behaviour in materials in sub-laser cycle timescale.

Polaritons in Van der Waals Heterostructures
Advanced Materials, 2023 Abstract2D monolayers supporting a wide variety of highly confined plasmons, phonon polaritons, and exciton polaritons can be vertically stacked in van der Waals heterostructures (vdWHs) with controlled constituent layers, stacking sequence, and even twist angles.
