Journal ArticleDOI

Doping graphene with metal contacts.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use density functional theory to study how graphene is doped by adsorption on metal substrates and find that weak bonding on Al, Ag, Cu, Au, and Pt, while preserving its unique electronic structure, can still shift the Fermi level with respect to the conical point by 0:5 eV.
Journal ArticleDOI

Substrate-induced band gap in graphene on hexagonal boron nitride: Ab initio density functional calculations

TL;DR: In this article, the electronic structure of a graphene sheet on top of a hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) substrate was determined using ab initio density functional calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI

First-principles study of the interaction and charge transfer between graphene and metals

TL;DR: In this paper, the adsorption of graphene on metal substrates using first-principles calculations at the level of density-functional theory was studied, and a simple analytical model was developed that describes the Fermi-level shift in graphene in terms of the metal substrate work function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diisopropylammonium Bromide Is a High-Temperature Molecular Ferroelectric Crystal

TL;DR: DIPAB is a molecular alternative to perovskite ferroelectrics and ferroelectric polymers in sensing, actuation, data storage, electro-optics, and molecular or flexible electronics and exhibits good piezoelectric response and well-defined ferro electric domains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Above-room-temperature ferroelectricity in a single-component molecular crystal

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that application of an electric field can coherently align the molecular polarities in crystalline croconic acid, as indicated by an increase of optical second harmonic generation, and produce a well-defined polarization hysteresis at room temperature.
