Discovery Projects
Grant Activity:
Electronics out of thin air: MAGIC - Metal–Air Gated Integrated Circuits
Purpose:
We constantly seek faster, lighter, and energy-efficient devices. This project will create a new class of electronic devices, re-inventing vacuum tubes that enabled electronics almost a century ago, and scaling them down to the nanoscale realm. The devices are termed vacuum channel transistors, and transistors are the critical functional element of all electronics. At the extremely small size scales for nanoelectronics, the charge carriers travel very short distances. This avoids collisions enabling extremely high-speed transport. Such a virtual vacuum environment can potentially enable electronics thousands of times faster than the current silicon-based technology, providing a solution to the challenges faced by the semiconductor industry.
