Ab initio simulations of novel 2D materials and interfaces for advanced ICT applications KU Leuven
To continue the development and miniaturization of transistors, new materials and device concepts are required to be developed. This thesis provides a study of two new classes of materials, superlattices and two-dimensional (2D) materials, to assess their potential as a replacement for silicon in the transistor channel. To perform this analysis, modern modeling techniques are used to provide an atomistic description (molecular dynamics, ...
