The use of a foreign metallic cold source (CS) has recently been proposed as a promising approach toward the steep-slope field-effect-transistor (FET). In addition to the selection of source material with desired density of states-energy…
We report macroscopic sheets of highly conductive bilayer graphene with exceptionally high hole concentrations of ~ $10^{15}$ $cm^{-2}$ and unprecedented sheet resistances of 20-25 {\Omega} per square over macroscopic scales, and obtained…
Two-dimensional ferroelectric materials are beneficial for power-efficient memory devices and transistor applications. Here, we predict out-of-plane ferroelectricity in a new family of buckled metal oxide (MO; M: Ge, Sn, Pb) monolayers with…
An energy gap can be opened in the electronic spectrum of graphene by lifting its sublattice symmetry. In bilayers, it is possible to open gaps as large as 0.2 eV. However, these gaps rarely lead to a highly insulating state expected for…
We report the fabrication and performance of all-metallic three-terminal devices with tantalum diselenide thin-film conducting channels. For this proof-of-concept demonstration, the layers of 2H-TaSe2 were exfoliated mechanically from…

A common issue in low temperature measurements of enhancement-mode metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) field-effect transistors (FETs) in the low electron density regime is the high contact resistance dominating the device impedance. In that…

Materials with flat electronic bands often exhibit exotic quantum phenomena owing to strong correlations. Remarkably, an isolated low-energy flat band can be induced in bilayer graphene by simply rotating the layers to 1.1$^{\circ}$,…
Using first-principles calculations we show that the band gap of bilayer sheets of semiconducting transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) can be reduced smoothly by applying vertical compressive pressure. These materials undergo a universal…
