Development of twistronic 2D elements for 3D heterostructures (TWIST 2D-3D)
Abstract
Although recent advances have been developed in two-dimensional (2D) moire physics, moire engineering involving mixed-dimensional 2D-3D heterostructures has been largely unexplored. In this proposal, we will focus on the controlled assembly and characterization of moire heterostructures between single crystalline 2D layers (hexagonal boron nitride, transition metal dichalcogenides, graphene), and single crystal 3D substrates (metals-semimetals and their oxides-carbides-nitrides). We will study the effect of 2D semiconducting -dielectric -ferroelectric- magnetic materials and their rotations against 2D-3D semiconducting- magnetic channels and elucidate the correlated properties such as magnetism and the leakage current, spin polarized current and various behavior of 2D-3D materials-based FETs. We will unveil novel emergent physical phenomena arising from the hybridization of the interfaces between 2D and 3D structures.
