GRAPHENE DOUBLE-BARRIER RESONANT TUNNELING DEVICE

摘要

An apparatus comprising: a fermion source nanolayer (90); a first insulating nanolayer (92); a fermion transport nanolayer (94); a second insulating nanolayer (96); a fermion sink nanolayer (98); a first contact for applying a first voltage to the fermion source nanolayer; a second contact for applying a second voltage to the fermion sink nanolayer; and a transport contact for enabling an electric current via the fermion transport nanolayer. In a particular example, the apparatus comprises three graphene sheets (90, 94, 98) interleaved with two-dimensional Boron-Nitride (hBN) layers (92, 96).
