Fluorides for 2D Next-Generation Nanoelectronics
The IRDS roadmap considers two-dimensional (2D) materials a promising option for scaling electronic devices down to atomic dimensions. While there has been a lot of progress regarding 2D semiconductors, all electronic devices require suitable insulators as well. Although a major show-stopper, insulators have received far less attention and their is no clear roadmap as to which insulators can be used for ultimately scaled nanoelectronics. My group was recently first to demonstrate back-gated 2D FETs using ultrathin calcium fluoride (CaF2) as an insulator. Based on these promising results, I firmly believe that fluorides, which are ionic crystals with often very wide bandgaps, can efficiently…
