Microchips of the Future: Suitable Insulators Are Still Missing

For decades, there has been a trend in microelectronics towards ever smaller and more compact transistors. 2D materials such as graphene are seen as a beacon of hope here: they are the thinnest material layers that can possibly exist, consisting of only one or a few atomic layers. Nevertheless, they can conduct electrical currents – conventional silicon technology, on the other hand, no longer works properly if the layers become too thin.
