Non-renewable energy sources, such as natural gas, coal, and oil, supply over 80% of the world’s energy demands. The earth’s atmosphere is heavily polluted with CO2 generated from fossil fuels and natural gases, raising ...

In solids, electrons do not behave as separate particles but instead interact intensely to form quasiparticles, which couple with other quasiparticles such as phonon, plasmon, and exciton to generate emergent quantum ...

This thesis investigates phonon dynamics, electronic, and spin excitations along with structural instabilities and phase transitions in rare earth pyrochlore iridates, A2Ir2O7 (A = Pr, Gd, Dy, and Er) and Bi-doped Sm2Ir2O7 ...

The theme of this thesis is Raman spectroscopic study of a variety of exotic states of matter under extreme conditions, such as, hydrostatic pressure as high as 25 GPa and a wide temperature range from 77 K to 390 K. Raman ...

This thesis presents Raman study of 2D materials of contemporary interests: 2H-MoTe_2, type-II Weyl semimetal (T_d-MoTe_2), structurally anisotropic semiconductors (1T'-ReX_2 (X=S, Se)) and Mott insulator (FePS_3) under ...

Emergence of Graphene, Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) and other van der Waals materials promises to rede fine the building blocks of the future materials and technologies. These materials have gained enormous ...

This thesis presents research work on twisted bilayer graphene (t-BLG) and twisted tungsten diselenide (t-WSe2) using various measurement techniques. Since the isolation of graphene in 2004, two-dimensional (2D) materials ...

Full text Embargo up to Oct 15, 2026 Point defects in monolayer (ML) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) can behave as single photon emitters (SPEs). SPEs enable foundational quantum phenomena like entanglement and ...
