Electronic Properties Of Atomically Thin Material Heterostructures, M. Javad Farrokhi Jan 2019

Electronic Properties Of Atomically Thin Material Heterostructures, M. Javad Farrokhi

Theses and Dissertations--Physics and Astronomy

There is a movement in the electronic industry toward building electronic devices with dimensions smaller than is currently possible. Atomically thin 2D material, such as graphene, bilayer graphene, hBN and MoS2 are great candidate for this goal and they have a potential set of novel electronic properties compare to their bulk counterparts due to the exhibition of quantum confinement effects. To this goal, we have investigated the electric field screening of multilayer 2D materials due to the presence of impurity charge in the interface and vertical electric fifield from back gate. Our result shows a dramatic difference of screening behavior …
