Transition from three to two dimensions increases conduction

摘要

Scientists from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (MIPT) Department of Molecular and Chemical Physics have for the first time described the behaviour of electrons in a previously unstudied analogue of graphene, two-dimensional niobium telluride. In the process, they uncovered the nature of two-dimensionality effects on conducting properties. These findings will help in the creation of future flat and flexible electronic devices.
