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 ...

Students had to compile a portfolio and discuss it in an interview to demonstrate their understanding and ability to apply ...

The ‘Tapping Mode SQUID-on-Tip’ (TM-SOT) microscope enables multimodal imaging to be performed extremely close to the sample surface using tapping mode feedback. This allows for stability during ...

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 ...
