Researchers from the Australian National University (ANU) have discovered a way to create interlayer exciton pairs using bilayer semiconductor technology, paving the way for faster devices that consume less energy.
This research could lay the groundwork for a new generation of smartphones and computers and next-generation technologies that high-speed computing, information processing, and data communication require.
Chief investigator at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Quantum Computation and Communication Technology, Prof. Yuerui (Larry) Lu said in an ANU news release that interlayer exciton pairs were predicted by theory decades ago. But he said that this is the first time that they have been observed in an experiment.  …
