(MURI 18) Hybrid-Materials Valley Optoelectronics For Photon Spin Communication

Abstract

The project will seek to combine the heterogeneous components into hybrid materials and engineer the atomic scale interactions at their interfaces, generating them in an ultrathin membrane geometry where unprecedented strains can be employed for valley optoelectronics applications beyond the current limit. This hybrid structure is enabled by two new capabilities: the production of atomically-thin semiconductor and ultra-thin, crystalline oxide membranes, and the clean transfer technology for arbitrary stacking of these thin films and membranes, both realized at full wafer-scale. This class of devices could offer significant advantages as compared to conventional optoelectronics devices that communicate through intensity modulation with significant power consumption.
