CDimension has developed a process for growing molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), a 2D semiconductor, on silicon at a low-enough temperature that it will not damage underlying silicon circuits. That could ...

A 2D semiconductor would also contribute to keeping the surface area of a chip to a minimum, lying in a thin film atop a supporting silicon device. But until recently, attempts to create such a ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Nanoelectronics deal with extremely small electronic components — transistors, sensors and circuits that can fit on the tip of a needle. This technology powers our everyday lives ...

The technology allows 2D semiconductor transistors to be directly integrated on top of standard silicon circuits. In the past, researchers have grown 2D materials elsewhere and then transferred ...

So far the team has successfully grown one of these 2D materials called transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) onto silicon wafers, without any defects in the crystal, which is huge.

“There is a whole family of superatomic and other 2D semiconductor materials out there with properties favorable for acoustic polaron formation.” The research was published in the journal Science.

On Wednesday, a team of researchers from China used a paper published in Nature to describe a 32-bit RISC-V processor built using molybdenum disulfide instead of silicon as the semiconductor.

In a world first, they used two-dimensional (2D) materials, which are only an atom thick and retain their properties at that scale, unlike silicon, to develop a computer capable of simple operations.

In the study, the team demonstrated that using thin 2D materials, like the semiconductor molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), in combination with silicon can create highly efficient electronic devices with ...
