A synthetic route to electronic- and quantum-grade two-dimensional crystals with dilute impurities
Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) crystals are an appealing material platform as a promising alternative to silicon for modern information technology thanks to their excellent electrostatic gating and non-degraded carrier mobility in the atomically thin limit. Additionally, their diverse range of physical properties recently suggest them and relevant heterostructures as a new type of hosting materials for quantum information technology. However, despite the advances in synthetic 2D materials, highly tunable electronic and quantum materials system need two key fundamental breakthroughs from the perspective of 2D materials synthesis and corresponding information technologies- 1. Development of electronic doping technique suited for 2D materials particularly in a dilute limit, and 2. Development of highly localized quantum emitters in 2D materials. To achieve these objectives, we propose a unique and transformative approach to synthesizing atomically-thin 2D crystals and introducing either electronic dopants or quantum emitting elements on demand.
