Research Bits: November 6


Fast superatomic semiconductor Researchers from Columbia University created a fast and efficient superatomic semiconductor material based on rhenium called Re6Se8Cl2. Rather than scattering when they come into contact with phonons, excitons in Re6Se8Cl2 bind with phonons to create new quasiparticles called acoustic exciton-polarons. Although polarons are found in many materials, those in Re6Se... » read more

Ferroelectrics: The Dream Of Negative Capacitance


Ferroelectrics are getting a serious re-examination, as chipmakers look for new options to maintain drive current. Ferroelectric materials can provide non-volatile memory, serving an important functional gap somewhere between DRAM and flash memory. Indeed, ferroelectrics for memory and 2D channels for transistors were two highlights of the recent IEEE Electron Device Meeting. Ferroelectri... » read more
