10.4.2025: Dr. Madad Abbasli has successfully crossed the finish line of his PhD race by defending his thesis "Ultrathin Films of Tin Halide Perovskite on Gold Single Crystals". Congratulations!
16.9.2024: Šimun Mandić from Institut of Physics in Zagreb (Croatia) joined us for a stay of three months as a part of his PhD-project on self-assembled molecules.
4.2.2019 Our manuscript "Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid in a box: Electrons confined within MoS2 mirror-twin boundaries" was accepted for publication in Physical Review X. Here, we observe spin-charge separation in one-dimensional wires. Authors are W. Jolie, C. Murray, P. S. Weiß, J. Hall, F. Portner, N. Atodiresei, A. V. Krasheninnikov, C. Busse, H.-P. Komsa, A. Rosch und T. Michely.
25.1.2019 We have submitted the manuscript "Comprehensive tunneling spectroscopy of quasi-freestanding MoS2 on graphene on Ir(111)". Here, we use different variants of tunneling spectrocopy to determine the electronic band structure of the ultrathin semiconductor MoS2. Authors are C. Murray, W. Jolie, J. A. Fischer, J. Hall, N. Ehlen, A. Grüneis, C. Busse and T. Michely.
8.1.2019 Our scanning tunneling microscope "TuMA 3" arrived from Münster.
28.11.2018 Our paper "Modifying the geometric and electronic structure of hexagonal boron nitride on Ir(111) by Cs adsorption and intercalation" was published in Phys. Rev. B. Here, we show how the geometric and electronic properties of the ultrathin insulator hBN can me tuned by interacion with the electron donor Cs. Authors are J. Cai, W. Jolie, C. Silva, M. Petrovic, C. Schlueter, T. Michely, M. Kralj, T.-L. Lee, and C. Busse.
6.11.2018 New Member: Thaís Chagas joins the group.
30.10.2018 Joshua Fuhrmann successfully completed his Bachelor thesis: Aufbau eines Rastertunnelmikroskops unter Umgebungsbedingungen
9.10.2018 Dina Wilks successfully completed her Bachelor thesis: Elektrochemischer Transfer von Graphen und hexagonalem Bornitrid
2.10.2018 We have submitted the manuscript "The charge density wave phase of VSe2 revisited" to Phys. Rev. B. Authors are W. Jolie, T. Knispel, N. Ehlen, K. Nikonov, C. Busse, A. Grüneis, and T. Michely. In this work, we use scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy to image the charge density wave at he surface of cleaved VSe2.
29.8.2018 Our paper "Resonance Raman Spectrum of Doped Epitaxial Graphene at the Lifshitz Transition" was published in Nano Letters. Authors are M. G. Hell, N. Ehlen, B. V. Senkovskiy, E. H. Hasdeo, A. Fedorov, D. Dombrowski, C. Busse, T. Michely, G. di Santo, L. Petaccia, R. Saito, and A. Grüneis. Here, we employ ultra-high vacuum (UHV) Raman spectroscopy in tandem with angle-resolved photoemission
(ARPES) to investigate the doping-dependent Raman spectrum of epitaxial graphene on Ir(111).
20.7.2018 Our paper "Valleys and hills of graphene on Ru(0001)" was published in J. Phys. Chem. C. In this work, we precisely determine the shape of a single layer of graphene using X-ray Standing Waves and find a good match to results from Density Functional Theory. Authors are C. Silva, M. Iannuzzi, D. Duncan,P. Ryan, K. Clarke, J. Küchle, J. Cai, W. Jolie, C. Schlueter, T.-L. Lee, and C: Busse
04.06.2018 New Members: Joshua Fuhrmann and Dina Wilks join the group.
01.05.2018 New Member: Dr. Robin Ohmann joins the group.
16.04.2018 New Member: Dennis Rybakowski joins the group.
08.03.2018 Our paper "Visualizing layer polarization in bilayer graphene with quasiparticle interference" was published in Phys. Rev. Lett. In this work, we demonstrate that electrons in bilayer graphene can be localized in one of the two layers only.
19.01.2018 Our paper "Molecular beam epitaxy of quasi-freestanding transition metal disulphide monolayers on van der Waals substrates: a growth sstudy" was ublished in 2D Materials. In this work, we describe a new approach to grow transition metal dichalcogenides on top of graphene and hexagonal boron nitride.
01.11.2017 The formation of our new group was featured in Siegener Zeitung (SZ) and Westfalenpost (WP) (see also the university's news).
