We propose and investigate the intrinsically thinnest transistor concept: a monolayer ballistic heterojunction bipolar transistor based on a lateral heterostructure of transition metal dichalcogenides. The device is intrinsically thinner than a Field Effect Transistor because it does not need a top or bottom gate, since transport is controlled by the electrochemical potential of the base electrode. As typical of bipolar transistors, the collector current undergoes a tenfold increase for each 60 mV increase of the base voltage over several orders of magnitude at room temperature, without sophisticated optimization of the electrostatics. We present a detailed investigation based on self-consistent simulations of electrostatics and quantum transport for both electron and holes of a pnp device using MoS$_2$ for the 10-nm base and WSe$_2$ for emitter and collector. Our three-terminal device simulations confirm the working principle and a large current modulation I$_text{ON}$/I$_text{OFF}sim 10^8$ for $Delta V_{rm EB}=0.5$ V. Assuming ballistic transport, we are able to achieve a current gain $betasim$ 10$^4$ over several orders of magnitude of collector current and a cutoff frequency up to the THz range. Exploration of the rich world of bipolar nanoscale device concepts in 2D materials is promising for their potential applications in electronics and optoelectronics.

We examine a silicon-germanium heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) for cryogenic pre-amplification of a single electron transistor (SET). The SET current modulates the base current of the HBT directly. The HBT-SET circuit is immersed in liquid he
lium, and its frequency response from low frequency to several MHz is measured. The current gain and the noise spectrum with the HBT result in a signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) that is a factor of 10-100 larger than without the HBT at lower frequencies. The transition frequency defined by SNR = 1 has been extended by as much as a factor of 10 compared to without the HBT amplification. The power dissipated by the HBT cryogenic pre-amplifier is approximately 5 nW to 5 {mu}W for the investigated range of operation. The circuit is also operated in a single electron charge read-out configuration in the time-domain as a proof-of-principle demonstration of the amplification approach for single spin read-out.
High-fidelity single-shot readout of spin qubits requires distinguishing states much faster than the T1 time of the spin state. One approach to improving readout fidelity and bandwidth (BW) is cryogenic amplification, where the signal from the qubit
is amplified before noise sources are introduced and room-temperature amplifiers can operate at lower gain and higher BW. We compare the performance of two cryogenic amplification circuits: a current-biased heterojunction bipolar transistor circuit (CB-HBT), and an AC-coupled HBT circuit (AC-HBT). Both circuits are mounted on the mixing-chamber stage of a dilution refrigerator and are connected to silicon metal oxide semiconductor (Si-MOS) quantum dot devices on a printed circuit board (PCB). The power dissipated by the CB-HBT ranges from 0.1 to 1 {mu}W whereas the power of the AC-HBT ranges from 1 to 20 {mu}W. Referred to the input, the noise spectral density is low for both circuits, in the 15 to 30 fA/$sqrt{textrm{Hz}}$ range. The charge sensitivity for the CB-HBT and AC-HBT is 330 {mu}e/$sqrt{textrm{Hz}}$ and 400 {mu}e/$sqrt{textrm{Hz}}$, respectively. For the single-shot readout performed, less than 10 {mu}s is required for both circuits to achieve bit error rates below $10^{-3}$, which is a putative threshold for quantum error correction.
Gas permeation through nanoscale pores is ubiquitous in nature and plays an important role in a plethora of technologies. Because the pore size is typically smaller than the mean free path of gas molecules, their flow is conventionally described by t
he Knudsen theory that assumes diffuse reflection (random-angle scattering) at confining walls. This assumption has proven to hold surprisingly well in experiment, and only a few cases of partially specular (mirror-like) reflection are known. Here we report gas transport through angstrom-scale channels with atomically-flat walls and show that surface scattering can be both diffuse or specular, depending on fine details of the surface atomic landscape, and quantum effects contribute to the specularity at room temperature. The channels made from graphene or boron nitride allow a helium gas flow that is orders of magnitude faster than expected from the theory. This is explained by specular surface scattering, which leads to ballistic transport and frictionless gas flow. Similar channels but with molybdenum disulfide walls exhibit much slower permeation that remains well described by Knudsen diffusion. The difference is attributed to stronger atomic corrugations at MoS2 surfaces, which are similar in height to the size of transported atoms and their de Broglie wavelength. The importance of the latter, matter-wave contribution is corroborated by the observation of a reversed isotope effect in which the mass flow of hydrogen is notably higher than that of deuterium, in contrast to the relation expected for classical flows. Our results provide insights into atomistic details of molecular permeation, which so far could be accessed only in simulations, and show a possibility of studying gas transport under a controlled confinement comparable to the quantum-mechanical size of atoms.
Here we present the experimental results of an inverted three-terminal heterojunction bipolar transistor solar cell (HBTSC) made of GaInP/GaAs. The inverted growth and processing enable contacting the intermediate layer (base) from the bottom, which
improves the cell performance by reducing shadow factor and series resistance at the same time. With this prototype we show that an inverted processing of a three-terminal solar cell is feasible and pave the way for the application of epitaxial lift-off, substrate reuse and mechanical stacking to the HBTSC which can eventually lead to a low-cost high-efficiency III-V-on-Si HBTSC technology.
The increasing technological control of two-dimensional materials has allowed the demonstration of 2D lateral junctions, which display unique properties that might serve as the basis for a new generation of 2D electronic and optoelectronic devices. N
otably, the chemically doped MoS$_2$ homojunction, the WSe$_2$-MoS$_2$ monolayer and MoS$_2$ monolayer/multilayer heterojunctions, have been demonstrated. Here we report the investigation of 2D lateral junction electrostatics, which differs from the bulk case because of the weaker screening, producing a much longer transition region between the space charge region and the quasi-neutral region, making inappropriate the use of the complete-depletion approximation. For such a purpose we have developed a method based on the conformal mapping technique to solve the 2D electrostatics, which is widely applicable to every kind of junctions, giving accurate results for even large asymmetric charge distribution scenarios.
