New device structure can improve the properties of integrated circuits towards low-power electronics
The development of a novel computational framework to investigate two-dimensional quantum material-based negative capacitance (NC) field-effect transistors (FETs) will enhance low-power electronics. “Mobile electronics, such as smartphones and laptops, rely on low-power electronic devices. Prioritizing lower power consumption in the design of these mobile electronics increases the usage time between charges and reduces the […]

Scanning Tunneling Microscopy of Quantum Materials, Devices and Molecules
Summary This project advances our ability to characterize and study novel quantum materials, quantum devices, and even individual molecules at the atomic level. By combining Non-Contact Atomic Force Microscopy (NC-AFM), Scanning Tunneling Microscopy (STM) and scanning gate methods, we correlate spatial information with transport properties and can locally manipulate charge, spin and structural states. […]

Quantum Dot Enabled Organic Photo-Transistor
Friday, March 16, 2018 Congratulations to the team Fluorosense for placing 2nd in the Nanotechnology Capstone Project Symposium. The team developed a ‘Quantum Dot Enabled Organic Photo-Transistor’ to improve the responsivity of phototransistor detectors. Their goal was to decrease the concentration of the fluorescent agents required to produce a sufficient optical signal, and thereby […]
