We predict that antiferromagnetic bilayers formed from van der Waals (vdW) materials, like bilayer CrI$_3$, have a strong magnetoelectric response that can be detected by measuring the gate voltage dependence of Faraday or Kerr rotation signals, total magnetization, or anomalous Hall conductivity. Strong effects are possible in single-gate geometries, and in dual-gate geometries that allow internal electric fields and total carrier densities to be varied independently. We comment on the reliability of density-functional-theory estimates of interlayer magnetic interactions in van der Waals bilayers, and on the sensitivity of magnetic interactions to pressure that alters the spatial separation between layers.

We study direct and indirect excitons in Rydberg states in phosphorene monolayers, bilayer and van der Waals (vdW) heterostructure in an external magnetic field, applied perpendicular to the monolayer or heterostructure within the framework of the ef
fective mass approximation. Binding energies of magnetoexcitons are calculated by a numerical integration of the Schrodinger equation using the Rytova-Keldysh potential for direct magnetoexcitons and both the Rytova-Keldysh and Coulomb potentials for indirect one. The latter allows to understand the role of screening in phosphorene. We report the magnetic field energy contribution to the binding energies and diamagnetic coefficients (DMCs) for magnetoexcitons that strongly depend on the effective mass of electron and hole and their anisotropy and can be tuned by the external magnetic field. We demonstrate theoretically that the vdW phosphorene heterostructure is a novel category of 2D semiconductor offering a tunability of the binding energies of magnetoexcitons by mean of external magnetic field and control the binding energies and DMCs by the number of hBN layers separated two phosphorene sheets. Such tunability is potentially useful for the devices design.
The van der Waals heterostructures are a fertile frontier for discovering emergent phenomena in condensed matter systems. They are constructed by stacking elements of a large library of two-dimensional materials, which couple together through van der
Waals interactions. However, the number of possible combinations within this library is staggering, and fully exploring their potential is a daunting task. Here we introduce van der Waals metamaterials to rapidly prototype and screen their quantum counterparts. These layered metamaterials are designed to reshape the flow of ultrasound to mimic electron motion. In particular, we show how to construct analogues of all stacking configurations of bilayer and trilayer graphene through the use of interlayer membranes that emulate van der Waals interactions. By changing the membranes density and thickness, we reach coupling regimes far beyond that of conventional graphene. We anticipate that van der Waals metamaterials will explore, extend, and inform future electronic devices. Equally, they allow the transfer of useful electronic behavior to acoustic systems, such as flat bands in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene, which may aid the development of super-resolution ultrasound imagers.
We study direct and indirect magnetoexcitons in Rydberg states in monolayers and heterostructures of transition-metal dichalcogenices (TMDCs) in an external magnetic field, applied perpendicular to the monolayer or heterostructures. We calculate bind
ing energies of magnetoexcitons for the Rydberg states 1$s$, 2$s$, 3$s$, and 4$s$ by numerical integration of the Schr{o}dinger equation using the Rytova-Keldysh potential for direct magnetoexcitons and both the Rytova-Keldysh and Coulomb potentials for indirect magnetoexcitons. Latter allows understanding the role of screening in TMDCs heterostructures. We report the magnetic field energy contribution to the binding energies and diamagnetic coefficients (DMCs) for direct and indirect magnetoexcitons. The tunability of the energy contribution of direct and indirect magnetoexcitons by the magnetic field is demonstrated. It is shown that binding energies and DMCs of indirect magnetoexcitons can be manipulated by the number of hBN layers. Therefore, our study raises the possibility of controlling the binding energies of direct and indirect magnetostrictions in TMDC monolayers, bilayers and heterostructures using magnetic field and opens an additional degree of freedom to tailor the binding energies and DMCs for heterostructures by varying the number of hBN sheets between TMDC layers. The calculations of the binding energies and DMCs of indirect magnetoexcitons in TMDC heterostructures are novel and can be compared with the experimental results when they will be available.
Antiferromagnets display enormous potential in spintronics owing to its intrinsic nature, including terahertz resonance, multilevel states, and absence of stray fields. Combining with the layered nature, van der Waals (vdW) antiferromagnets hold the
promise in providing new insights and new designs in two-dimensional (2D) spintronics. The zero net magnetic moments of vdW antiferromagnets strengthens the spin stability, however, impedes the correlation between spin and other excitation elements, like excitons. Such coupling is urgently anticipated for fundamental magneto-optical studies and potential opto-spintronic devices. Here, we report an ultra-sharp excitonic emission with excellent monochromaticity in antiferromagnetic nickel phosphorus trisulfides (NiPS3) from bulk to atomically thin flakes. We prove that the linear polarization of the excitonic luminescence is perpendicular to the ordered spin orientation in NiPS3. By applying an in-plane magnetic field to alter the spin orientation, we further manipulate the excitonic emission polarization. Such strong correlation between exciton and spins provides new insights for the study of magneto-optics in 2D materials, and hence opens a path for developing opto-spintronic devices and antiferromagnet-based quantum information technologies.
Tellurium can form nanowires of helical atomic chains. Given their unique one-dimensional van der Waals structure, these nanowires are expected to show remarkably different physical and electronic properties than bulk tellurium. Here we show that few
-chain and single-chain van der Waals tellurium nanowires can be isolated using carbon nanotube and boron nitride nanotube encapsulation. With the approach, the number of atomic chains can be controlled by the inner diameter of the nanotube. The Raman response of the structures suggests that the interaction between a single-atomic tellurium chain and a carbon nanotube is weak, and that the inter-chain interaction becomes stronger as the number of chains increases. Compared with bare tellurium nanowires on SiO2, nanowires encapsulated in boron nitride nanotubes exhibit a dramatically enhanced current-carrying capacity, with a current density of 1.5*10^8 A cm-2, which exceeds that of most semiconducting nanowires. We also use our tellurium nanowires encapsulated in boron nitride nanotubes to create field-effect transistors that have a diameter of only 2 nm.
