For nearly two decades, two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors have been studied as a complement or possible successor to silicon transistors, promising smaller, faster and more energy-efficient ...

Duke engineers show how a common device architecture used to test 2D transistors overstates their performance prospects in real-world devices.

For almost two decades, scientists have been trying to move beyond silicon, the material ...

Future devices will continue to probe the frontier of the very small, and at scales where functionality depends on mere atoms, even the tiniest flaw matters. Researchers at Rice University have shown ...
