Laboratory of 2D Optoelectronics and Nanoelectronics (L2DON) is led by Associate Professor Yury Illarionov (Google Scholar) and belongs to the Department of Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) of the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), Shenzhen, China.
L2DON has all facilities for device nanofabrication, electrical characterization and TCAD modeling. Our research is centered around devices based on 2D materials, with a primary focus on the reliability of field-effect transistors with 2D channels and photodetectors made of 2D van der Waals heterostructures.
Our team consists of great people with different professional and cultural backgrounds, each of whom clearly knows and understands their task while being able to work together on the common goals. Thus, our success is determined by the filigree combination of these orchestra-like pillars: Organization, Communication and Interaction which has shaped the slogan of L2DON.
Two-dimensional (2D) materials offer great opportunities for both nanoscale FETs and other electronic devices which do not require aggressive scaling, such as optoelectronics and sensors. However, all these devices also require suitable gate insulators which would form sharp interfaces with 2D channels, contain low density of defects and allow scalable growth at technologically feasible temperatures.
The group of Prof. Yury Illarionov focuses on finding suitable insulators for different types of 2D devices and work on the following research themes:
– Fabrication of filed-effect transistors, photodetectors and sensors with different 2D channels and new insulators such as fluorides and native oxides
– Advanced characterization of the performance and reliability of these devices in a broad range of temperatures
– Advanced TCAD modeling of device performance and reliability to finally determine which combinations of insulators and 2D channels would enable the most competitive transistors, photodetectors and sensors
– Development of scalable fabrication techniques for the most promising devices, which would also fit technologically feasible thermal budgets (cooperation with industry would be especially valuable for this topic)
