Tunable Interactions in 2-dimensional Materials for Quantum Matter and Light
Interactions amongst a macroscopic number of constituents leads to emergent, collective phenomena such as magnetism and superconductivity. Quantum confinement enhances interactions between electrons leading to a wide variety of many-body quantum phases. Atomically thin layered materials such as monolayer semiconductors are prime candidates to study the effect of interactions due to extreme quantum confinement. Moreover, they offer unique features such as heterostructure assembly aided by van der Waals interactions allowing for engineered electronic properties. Recently, electronic transport measurements have uncovered correlated electronic phases such as Mott-insulator and superconductors…
