Topological material switched off and on for the first time

Monday, December 10, 2018 - 15:12 in Physics & Chemistry

A new study represents a significant advance in topological transistors and beyond-CMOS electronics. First time that the topological state in a topological insulator has been switched on and off using an electric field. Researchers proved this is possible at room temperature, which is necessary for any viable replacement to CMOS technology in everyday applications.
