Diamond has attracted attention as a next-generation semiconductor because of its various exceptional properties such as a wide bandgap and high breakdown electric field. Diamond field effect transistors, for example, have been extensively investigated for high-power and high-frequency electronic applications. The quality of their charge transport (i.e., mobility), however, has been limited due to charged impurities near the diamond surface. Here, we fabricate diamond field effect transistors by using a monocrystalline hexagonal boron nitride as a gate dielectric. The resulting high mobility of charge carriers allows us to observe quantum oscillations in both the longitudinal and Hall resistivities. The oscillations provide important information on the fundamental properties of the charge carriers, such as effective mass, lifetime, and dimensionality. Our results indicate the presence of a high-quality two-dimensional hole gas at the diamond surface and thus pave the way for studies of quantum transport in diamond and the development of low-loss and high-speed devices.

The transparent interface in epitaxial Al-InAs heterostructures provides an excellent platform for potential advances in mesoscopic and topological superconductivity. Semiconductor-based Josephson Junction Field Effect Transistors (JJ-FETs) fabricate
d on these heterostructures have a metallic gate that tunes the supercurrent. Here we report the fabrication and measurement of gate-tunable Al-InAs JJ-FETs in which the gate dielectric in contact with the InAs is produced by mechanically exfoliated hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) followed by dry transfer using a van der Waals-mediated pick up process. We discuss the fabrication process that enables compatibility between layered material transfer and Al-InAs heterostructures to avoid chemical reactions and unintentional doping that could affect the characteristics of the JJ-FET. We achieve full gate-tunablity of supercurrent by using only 5~nm thick h-BN flakes. We contrast our process with devices fabricated using a conventional AlO$_{rm x}$ gate dielectric and show that h-BN could be an excellent competing dielectric for JJ-FET devices. We observe that the product of normal resistance and critical current, I$_{rm c}$R$_{rm n}$, is comparable for both types of devices, but strikingly higher R$_{rm n}$ for the h-BN-based devices indicating that the surface is doped less compared to AlO$_{rm x}$ gate dielectric.
Carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (CNT FETs) have been proposed as possible building blocks for future nano-electronics. But a challenge with CNT FETs is that they appear to randomly display varying amounts of hysteresis in their transfer char
acteristics. The hysteresis is often attributed to charge trapping in the dielectric layer between the nanotube and the gate. This study includes 94 CNT FET samples, providing an unprecedented basis for statistics on the hysteresis seen in five different CNT-gate configurations. We find that the memory effect can be controlled by carefully designing the gate dielectric in nm-thin layers. By using atomic layer depositions (ALD) of HfO$_{2}$ and TiO$_{2}$ in a triple-layer configuration, we achieve the first CNT FETs with consistent and narrowly distributed memory effects in their transfer characteristics.
We have demonstrated selective gas sensing with molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) thin films transistors capped with a thin layer of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). The resistance change was used as a sensing parameter to detect chemical vapors such as eth
anol, acetonitrile, toluene, chloroform and methanol. It was found that h-BN dielectric passivation layer does not prevent gas detection via changes in the source-drain current in the active MoS2 thin film channel. The use of h-BN cap layers (thickness H=10 nm) in the design of MoS2 thin film gas sensors improves device stability and prevents device degradation due to environmental and chemical exposure. The obtained results are important for applications of van der Waals materials in chemical and biological sensing.
The environmental stability of the layered semiconductor black phosphorus (bP) remains a challenge. Passivation of the bP surface with phosphorus oxide, POx, grown by a reactive ion etch with oxygen plasma is known to improve photoluminescence effici
ency of exfoliated bP flakes. We apply phosphorus oxide passivation in the fabrication of bP field effect transistors using a gate stack consisting of a POx layer grown by reactive ion etching followed by atomic layer deposition of Al2O3. We observe room temperature top-gate mobilities of 115 cm2/Vs in ambient conditions, which we attribute to the low defect density of the bP/POx interface.
The application of imaging techniques based on ensembles of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) sensors in diamond to characterise electrical devices has been proposed, but the compatibility of NV sensing with operational gated devices remains largely unexplored.
Here we fabricate graphene field-effect transistors (GFETs) directly on the diamond surface and characterise them via NV microscopy. The current density within the gated graphene is reconstructed from NV magnetometry under both mostly p- and n-type doping, but the exact doping level is found to be affected by the measurements. Additionally, we observe a surprisingly large modulation of the electric field at the diamond surface under an applied gate potential, seen in NV photoluminescence and NV electrometry measurements, suggesting a complex electrostatic response of the oxide-graphene-diamond structure. Possible solutions to mitigate these effects are discussed.
