The finite energy band-offset that appears between band structures of employed materials in a broken-gap heterojunction exhibits several interesting phenomena. Here, by employing black phosphorus (BP)/rhenium disulfide (ReS2 ) heterojunction, the tunability BP work function (Φ with variation flake thickness is exploited order to demonstrate BP-based can manifest diverse current-transport characteristics such as gate tunable rectifying p-n junction diodes, Esaki backward-rectifying and...

As Coulomb drag near charge neutrality (CN) is driven by fluctuations or inhomogeneity in density, the topology should play an extremely important role. Interlinking and could reveal how system's nontrivial influences electron–electron interactions at quantum level. However, such aspect overlooked as most studies focus on symmetric systems without topology. To understand this topological aspect, we need to study asymmetric system with a broken inversion symmetry strong spin–orbit coupling...
