Bottom-up synthesized GNRs and GNR heterostructures have promising electronic properties for high performance field effect transistors (FETs) ultra-low power devices such as tunnelling FETs. However, the short length wide band gap of these prevented fabrication with desired switching behaviour. Here, by fabricating channel (Lch ~20 nm) a thin, high-k gate dielectric 9-atom (0.95 armchair material, we demonstrate FETs on-current (Ion >1 uA at Vd = -1 V) Ion/Ioff ~10^5 room temperature. We...

In recent years, surface acoustic waves (SAWs) have emerged as a novel technique for generating quasiparticle transport and band modulation in condensed matter systems. SAWs interact with adjacent materials through piezoelectric strain fields, dragging carriers the direction of wave propagation.

Ferromagnetic semiconductors offer an efficient way to achieve high spin polarization via filtering effect. Large tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) can then be realized when multiple filters are put in series, as recently demonstrated van der Waals 2D A-type antiferromagnets such CrI_{3} and CrSBr. However, the interlayer antiferromagnetic ground state of these magnets inherently results a resistance at zero field, this volatile behavior limits potential applications. Here we fabricate...
