For nearly two decades, two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors have been studied as a complement or possible successor to silicon transistors, promising smaller, faster and more energy-efficient ...

Duke engineers show how a common device architecture used to test 2D transistors overstates their performance prospects in real-world devices.

The research 'Impact of Contact Gating on Scaling of Monolayer 2D Transistors Using a Symmetric Dual-Gate Structure' appeared ...

Lab architecture used to test 2D semiconductors artificially boosts performance metrics, making it harder to assess whether these materials can truly replace silicon.

For nearly two decades, two‑dimensional (2D) semiconductors have been studied as a complement or possible successor to silicon transistors, promising ...

A stunning new imaging breakthrough lets scientists see — and fix — the atomic flaws hiding inside tomorrow’s computer chips. Researchers at Cornell University have achieved something chipmakers have ...

The ‘Tapping Mode SQUID-on-Tip’ (TM-SOT) microscope enables multimodal imaging to be performed extremely close to the sample surface using tapping mode feedback. This allows for stability during ...

Cornell researchers have used high-resolution 3D imaging to detect, for the first time, the atomic-scale defects in computer chips that can sabotage their performance.

Throughout the 20th century, each decade had its own unique set of inventions that left their mark on history. Curious about ...
