This comprehensive and novel article covers an important category of nanocomposites, ie
polymer and graphene quantum dots derived nanocomposites. Graphene quantum dots …

Although current cancer treatment technologies have advanced quickly, the patient's chance
of recovering is still poor. Early detection enhances cancer prognosis and can considerably …

We develop here a theory of the electronic properties of a finite number of valence holes in
gated WSe 2 quantum dots, considering the influence of spin, valley, electronic orbitals, and …

We present a theory of interacting valence holes in a gate-defined one-dimensional
quantum channel in a single layer of a transition metal dichalcogenide material WSe 2 …

We predict here the fine structure of an electrically tunable negatively charged exciton (trion)
composed of two electrons and a hole confined in a gated bilayer graphene quantum dot …

Deep ultraviolet photodetectors play a critical role in applications such as ozone layer
monitoring and missile alert systems. This work investigates the potential of graphene …

Single-layer quantum dot gate potential causes type-II band alignment, ie electrostatically
confines holes and repels electrons, or vice versa. Hence, the confinement of excitons in …

We determine the optical properties of gated bilayer graphene quantum dots with trigonal
warping (TW) of single-particle energy spectra. The lateral structure of metallic gates …

In this thesis, we study graphene's optical and electrical properties, primarily focusing on
bilayer graphene (BLG) quantum dots (QDs). We discuss a tight-binding model to accurately …

In this thesis, we contribute to the understanding of electronic and optical properties of 2-
dimensional materials, with a strong focus on graphene-based nanostructures\cite …
