自 1959 年底金属氧化物半导体场效应晶体管 (MOSFET) 发明以来，电子产品对人类社会的影响日益普遍，通过“大数据”严重规范着现代健康、交通、金融、娱乐和社交媒体领域。然而，这些领域每天生成数 PB 的数据，以及相关的通信开销，给传统的计算和通信技术带来了巨大的压力，而这些技术并不是专门为大数据开发的。解决这些问题需要对当前的半导体技术（从材料到架构）进行全面改革，而二维 (2D) 层状材料及其奇异的电气和结构特性非常适合实现这一目标。本文旨在概述迄今为止利用二维材料在纳米电子领域实现的关键技术创新，并展现这一新材料系列在开发受大脑启发的超低能耗片上计算和通信技术方面的前景，从而开创电子学的新时代。
Since the invention of the metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) in late 1959, the impact of electronics on human society has been increasingly pervasive, heavily regulating modern health, transport, finance, entertainment, and social media sectors through “Big Data.” However, daily generation of petabytes of data from these sectors, along with their associated communication overhead, is placing an immense strain on the conventional computing and communication technologies, which were not developed exclusively for big data. Tackling these problems calls for a holistic overhaul of the current semiconductor technology, from materials to architecture, and two-dimensional (2D)-layered materials with their exotic electrical and structural properties are well positioned to accomplish just that. This perspective article aims to provide an overview of the key technological innovations in the nanoelectronics domain that have been achieved with 2D-materials thus far, and to bring forth the promise of this new materials family in developing brain-inspired ultra low-energy on-chip computing and communication techniques to usher a new era in electronics.
