Functionalizing Van der Waals Materials by Shaping Them

Chinese Academy of Sciences

PN junction is the elementary building block of semiconductor devices, like diode, solar cell and LED, which make up the modern (opto-)electronics.

Recently, researchers from the Shanghai Institute of Technical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have proposed a novel method to fabricate two-dimensional PN junction. This method simplifies the semiconductor manufacturing process and is well-suited to develop (opto-)electronic devices at the ultimate physical limit.
