Surface-dominated conductance scaling in Weyl semimetal NbAs
Sushant Kumar, Yi-Hsin Tu, Luo Sheng +6
Protected surface states arising from non-trivial bandstructure topology in semimetals can potentially enable new device functionalities in compute, memory, interconnect, sensing,…
Unconventional Resistivity Scaling in Topological Semimetal CoSi
Shang-Wei Lien, Ion Garate, Utkarsh Bajpai +9
Nontrivial band topologies in semimetals lead to robust surface states that can contribute dominantly to the total conduction. This may result in reduced resistivity with decreasin…
Size-Dependent Grain Boundary Scattering in Topological Semimetals
Nicholas A. Lanzillo, Utkarsh Bajpai, Ion Garate +1
We assess the viability of topological semimetals for application in advanced interconnect technology, where conductor size is on the order of a few nanometers and grain boundaries…
Topological Semimetals for Scaled Back-End-Of-Line Interconnect Beyond Cu
Ching-Tzu Chen, Utkarsh Bajpai, Nicholas A. Lanzillo +3
The resistance bottleneck in metal-interconnect scaling calls for new interconnect materials. This paper explores topological semimetals as a potential solution. After reviewing th…
First principles evaluation of fcc ruthenium for use in advanced interconnects
Timothy M. Philip, Nicholas A. Lanzillo, Tue Gunst +4
As the semiconductor industry turns to alternate conductors to replace Cu for future interconnect nodes, much attention as been focused on evaluating the electrical performance of…
Weak electron-phonon coupling in the early alkali atomic wires
Nicholas A. Lanzillo, Saroj K. Nayak
The structural, electronic and vibrational properties of atomic wires composed of the early alkali metals lithium and sodium are studied using density functional perturbation theor…
Temperature-dependent Phonon Shifts in Monolayer MoS2
Nicholas Lanzillo, A. Glen Birdwell, Matin Amani +9
We present a combined experimental and computational study of two-dimensional molybdenum disulfde (MoS2) and the effect of temperature on the frequency shifts of the Raman-active E…
