The traditional Hume-Rothery phases are Cu-bronzes or other (three-dimensional) alloys, which show a series of phase transitions at fixed electron-per-atom ratios, independent of the particular atomic constituents. The transitions are driven by Fermi surface nesting within the individual phases. It is shown that similar transitions appear to be a pervasive feature of two-dimensional systems. Examples are given involving graphite intercalation compounds, organic superconductors, and the new high T c oxide superconductors.

We report detailed angle dependent studies of the metallic state microwave (40 to 200 GHz) magneto-conductivity of single crystal samples of the α- (BEDT-TTF) 2 KHg(SCN) 4 organic charge density wave conductor, and the perovskite superconductor Sr 2 RuO 4. We observe series' of resonant absorptions which we attribute to periodic orbit resonances - a phenomenon closely related to cyclotron resonance. By performing measurements on several samples, and in different electromagnetic field configurations, we are able to couple to different orbital modes (+ harmonics), which derive from deformations (warpings) of the quasi-one and quasi-two-dimensional Fermi surfaces of these compounds. These studies provide vital information concerning interlayer dispersion which, in turn, affects the Fermi surface nesting characteristics which are believed to play a crucial role in the low temperature physics of these exotic materials.

Two-dimensional boron is promising as a tunable monolayer metal for nano-optoelectronics. We study the optoelectronic properties of two likely allotropes of two-dimensional boron using first-principles density functional theory and many-body perturbation theory. We find that both systems are anisotropic metals, with strong energy- and thickness-dependent optical transparency and a weak (<1%) absorbance in the visible range. Additionally, using state-of-the-art methods for the description of the electron-phonon and electron-electron interactions, we show that the electrical conductivity is limited by electron-phonon interactions. Our results indicate that both structures are suitable as a transparent electrode.
