Enabling diamond nanoelectronics with metal oxide induced surface doping

该项目旨在将金刚石用于射频功率电子器件。这是建立在研究人员成功地使用过渡金属氧化物控制金刚石表面导电性的基础上的。金刚石对于构建高功率、高频电子器件，特别是用于电力控制/转换和电信是非常理想的。缺乏有效和稳定的掺杂方法阻碍了这一前景的实现。该项目预计，高性能和技术上可行的器件技术将使金刚石电子器件能够应用于电信，雷达和下一代电网。

This project aims to use diamond for radio frequency power electronics. This builds on the investigator’s success in controlling diamond surface conductivity using transition metal oxides. Diamond is highly desirable for building high-power, high-frequency electronic devices, particularly for use in electrical power control/conversion and telecommunication. The lack of effective and stable doping methods has impeded the realisation of this prospect. This project expects the high performance and technically viable device technologies will enable diamond electronic devices for applications in telecommunications, radars and the next-generation electricity grid.
