New split-gate ferroelectric field-effect transistor paves the way for “Zero-Trust” hardware

A team of international researchers, including a 2DFERROPLEX team member, have developed a novel multifunctional ferroelectric field-effect transistor using a new split-gate architecture that can switch between different logic and computing operations while automatically erasing sensitive data after a short period (~100 s), offering a new solution for secure and energy-efficient hardware suited for “Zero-Trust” …

A new enhanced tool for modelling electrons behaviour in 2D semiconductors

An International team of researchers, led by 2DFERROPLEX project members, have developed a new modelling tool for monolayer molybdenum disulphide (MoS2), resolving a long-standing discrepancy between predicted and measured electron behaviour. The team provides a new more accurate modelling tool for building future spintronic and optoelectronic devices.
