Liquid Metals come to the Rescue of Semiconductors

New deposition approach: synthesising and exfoliating (transferring onto a silicon substrate for example) 2D semiconducting MoS2

Possible pathway to fast-switching, ultra-low energy electronics based on 2D materials. Two-dimensional semiconductors offer a possible solution to the limited potential for further shrinking traditional silicon-based electronics: the long-predicted end of ‘Moore’s Law’. 2D-based electronics, which could eliminate wasted dissipation of heat and allow for very fast, ultra-low energy operation, could be enabled by a new liquidmetal deposition technique.

Moore’s law is an empirical suggestion describing that the number of transistors doubles every few years in integrated circuits (ICs)...
