Graphene, despite its many impressive properties, lacks an inherent band gap, making semiconducting graphene critical to graphene nanoelectronics. Efforts over the past two decades to alter this band gap either through quantum confinement or chemical functionalization have failed to yield a workable semiconducting graphene. Professors Walter de Heer of Georgia Tech and Ma Lei of … Continue reading Rare High Tech | The world’s first graphene-based functional semiconductor, with electronic mobility 10 times greater than silicon.
According to a report by IT House on January 4th, a research team has recently created the world’s first functional semiconductor constructed from graphene. This groundbreaking discovery is detailed in a paper entitled “Ultrahigh-mobility semiconducting epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide,” which was published in the renowned journal, Nature. The study was conducted mainly by a … Continue reading The first functional semiconductor made of graphene is unveiled.
