Thermal Transport in Layered Materials, Devices, and Systems
Online Presentations | 11 Apr 2024 | Contributor(s):: Eric Pop
The thermal properties of layered materials (like graphene and MoS2) are an active area of investigation, particularly due to their anisotropic and tunable thermal conductivity. We have studied their behavior as part of transistors, where self-heating is a major challenge for performance and...

What Are 2D Materials Good For?
Online Presentations | 11 Apr 2024 | Contributor(s):: Eric Pop
This talk will present my (admittedly biased) perspective of what two-dimensional (2D) materials could be good for. For example, they may be good for applications where their ultrathin nature and lack of dangling bonds give them distinct advantages, such as flexible electronics or DNA-sorting...

Essential Physics of the Ultimate MOSFET and the Next 20 Years of Semiconductor Technology
Online Presentations | 18 Mar 2024 | Contributor(s):: Mark Lundstrom
My goal in this talk is to discuss the operation of these devices in a simple but physically sound way. A broader goal of my talk is to discuss how semiconductor technology will meet the insatiable appetite that artificial intelligence has for more computing, more memory, and faster communication.

Transistors!
Papers | 04 Mar 2024 | Contributor(s):: Mark Lundstrom
As we begin a new era, in which making transistors smaller will no longer be a major driving force for progress, it is time to look back at what we have learned in transistor research. Today we see a need to convey as simply and clearly as possible the essential physics of the device that makes...
