Two-Dimensional Atomic Layer Systems for Low Dissipation Flexible Device Applications

Abstract

The focus areas of this proposal are material preparation and device fabrication, the measurement and study of the electrical- and optical- properties, and associated applications of layered 2D systems including bilayer and mono-layer graphene, atomically thin hexagonal boron nitride, and mono- and bilayer-molybdenum disulfide. Such a study of the building blocks, and especially of coupled stacks of such 2D materials obtained via “van der Waals hetero-epitaxy”, can potentially impact the DoD mission by advancing materials and technology for new low-power and lowdissipation devices for portable flexible electronics – electronics that can provide more functionality in a smaller device with lower energy consumption. This project will move forward low cost techniques for realizing high quality 2D materials, advance nanoscale device fabrication, provide feedback to material development through basic physical studies, and test new concepts in terahertz radiation sensing.
