Two dimensional atomic sheets, such as graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), have been widely studied as electronic materials for flexible nanoelectronics applications due to the high flexibility enabled by their natural 2D layered crystal structure. However, with the growing need for both high speed and low power consumption in realistic applications, TMDs with relatively low m...

Electromigration is a major road block in the pursuit of nanoelectronics and next generation power electronics. The current density in the state-of-the-art microelectronics solder joints is about 10 A/cm. In the next generation nanoelectronics solder joints this current density is expected to increase by an order of magnitude, at least. In this paper, a new damage mechanics formulation is imple...

Spintronics is a new paradigm for electronics which utilizes the electron's spin in addition to its charge for device functionality. It is a rapidly emerging field of science and technology that will most likely have a significant impact on the future of all aspects of electronics as we continue to move into the 21st century. The primary areas for potential applications are information storage,...

Electrons have been channelled through graphene wires using the principles of optical guiding by fibre optic cables.

We experimentally investigate the effects of Co-60 irradiation on the electrical properties of single-walled carbon nanotube and graphene field-effect transistors. We observe significant differences in the radiation response of devices depending on their irradiation environment, and confirm that, under controlled conditions, standard dielectric hardening approaches are applicable to carbon nano...

We theoretically extend the applications of graphdiyne, an experimentally available one-atom-thin carbon allotrope, to nanoelectronics and superior separation membrane for hydrogen purification on a precise level.
