Polarity-Controllable Devices and Circuits for Doping-Free 2D Electronics

Giovanni Vincenzo Resta

The growth of information technology has been sustained by the miniaturization of Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) Field-Effect Transistors (FETs), with the number of devices per unit area constantly increasing, as exemplified by Mooreâs la ...

Doping-Free Complementary Logic Gates Enabled by Two-Dimensional Polarity-Controllable Transistors

Giovanni De Micheli, Giovanni Vincenzo Resta, Pierre-Emmanuel Julien Marc Gaillardon

Atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) materials belonging to transition metal dichalcogenides, due to their physical and electrical properties, are an exceptional vector for the exploration of next-generation semiconductor devices. Among them, due to the po ...

Van der Waals MoS2/VO2 heterostructure junction with tunable rectifier behavior and efficient photoresponse

Olivier Martin, Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Arnaud Magrez, Andreas Schueler, Igor Stolichnov, Anna Krammer, Teodor Rosca, Emanuele Andrea Casu, Chen Yan, Nicolò Oliva

Junctions between n-type semiconductors of different electron affinity show rectification if the junction is abrupt enough. With the advent of 2D materials, we are able to realize thin van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures based on a large diversity of mate ...

In this letter, we demonstrate a general model to reduce the reverse leakage current (I-R) in high-voltage AlGaN/GaN Schottky diodes (SBDs) by engineering the pinchoff voltage (V-p) of their field plates (FPs). The maximum voltage drop at the Schottky junc ...
