The singular density of states and the two Fermi wavevectors resulting from a ring-shaped or Mexican hat valence band give rise to unique trends in the charged impurity scattering rates and charged impurity limited mobilities. Ring shaped valence bands are common features of many monolayer and few-layer two-dimensional materials including the III-VI materials GaS, GaSe, InS, and InSe. The wavevector dependence of the screening, calculated within the random phase approximation, is so strong that it is the dominant factor determining the overall trends of the scattering rates and mobilities with respect to temperature and hole density. Charged impurities placed on the substrate and in the 2D channel are considered. The different wavevector dependencies of the bare Coulomb potentials alter the temperature dependence of the mobilities. Moving the charged impurities 5 $AA$ from the center of the channel to the substrate increases the mobility by an order of magnitude.

We review the physics of charged impurities in the vicinity of graphene. The long-range nature of Coulomb impurities affects both the nature of the ground state density profile as well as graphenes transport properties. We discuss the screening of a single Coulomb impurity and the ensemble averaged density profile of graphene in the presence of many randomly distributed impurities. Finally, we discuss graphenes transport properties due to scattering off charged impurities both at low and high carrier density.
We have examined the impact of charged impurity scattering on charge carrier transport in bilayer graphene (BLG) by deposition of potassium in ultra-high vacuum at low temperature. Charged impurity scattering gives a conductivity which is supra-linea r in carrier density, with a magnitude similar to single-layer graphene for the measured range of carrier densities of 2-4 x 10^12 cm^-2. Upon addition of charged impurities of concentration n_imp, the minimum conductivity Sigma_min decreases proportional to n_imp^-1/2, while the electron and hole puddle carrier density increases proportional to n_imp^1/2. These results for the intentional deposition of potassium on BLG are in good agreement with theoretical predictions for charged impurity scattering. However, our results also suggest that charged impurity scattering alone cannot explain the observed transport properties of pristine BLG on SiO2 before potassium doping.
We analyze the valley selection rules for optical transitions from impurity states to the conduction band in two-dimensional Dirac materials, taking a monolayer of MoS2 as an example. We employ the analytical model of a shallow impurity potential whi ch localizes electrons described by a spinor wave function, and, first, find the system eigenstates taking into account the presence of two valleys in the Brillouin zone. Then, we find the spectrum of the absorbance and calculate the photon-drag electric current due to the impurity-band transitions, drawing the general conclusions regarding the valley optical selection rules for the impurity-band optical transitions in gapped Dirac materials.
The temperature effect on the Raman scattering efficiency is investigated in $varepsilon$-GaSe and $gamma$-InSe crystals. We found that varying the temperature over a broad range from 5 K to 350 K permits to achieve both the resonant conditions and t he antiresonance behaviour in Raman scattering of the studied materials. The resonant conditions of Raman scattering are observed at about 270 K under the 1.96 eV excitation for GaSe due to the energy proximity of the optical band gap. In the case of InSe, the resonant Raman spectra are apparent at about 50 K and 270 K under correspondingly the 2.41 eV and 2.54 eV excitations as a result of the energy proximity of the mbox{so-called} B transition. Interestingly, the observed resonances for both materials are followed by an antiresonance behaviour noticeable at higher temperatures than the detected resonances. The significant variations of phonon-modes intensities can be explained in terms of electron-phonon coupling and quantum interference of contributions from different points of the Brillouin zone
We demonstrate that spin-orbit coupling (SOC) strength for electrons near the conduction band edge in few-layer $gamma$-InSe films can be tuned over a wide range. This tunability is the result of a competition between film-thickness-dependent intrins ic and electric-field-induced SOC, potentially, allowing for electrically switchable spintronic devices. Using a hybrid $mathbf{kcdot p}$ tight-binding model, fully parameterized with the help of density functional theory computations, we quantify SOC strength for various geometries of InSe-based field-effect transistors. The theoretically computed SOC strengths are compared with the results of weak antilocalization measurements on dual-gated multilayer InSe films, interpreted in terms of Dyakonov-Perel spin relaxation due to SOC, showing a good agreement between theory and experiment.
