FLEET PhD student Rebecca Orrell-Trigg (RMIT) uses liquid metals to synthesise 2D (atomically thin) materials for use in future ultra-low energy electronic devices.
Late last year they developed a liquid metal “bubbling” method that was described as “ground breaking”, and have since refined this method to make it even more widely applicable.
Rebecca’s interview covered the advantages of the new technique over epitaxy methods, why 2D materials are key to ultra-low energy electronics and alternative ‘touch printing’ methods.
FLEET’s development of ultra-low dissipation electronic pathways is enabled by the science
of atomically-thin, two-dimensional (2D) materials. Large-scale deposition of such 2D materials is a key
challenge for FLEET’s Enabling technology A.
