Engineering the future of 2D transistors: scaling, p-doping, and contact strategies

Submission status
Open
Submission deadline

This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 9 - Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure.

Electronic devices based on 2D semiconductors are considered one of the most promising alternatives to complement silicon devices in future integrated circuits. However, several challenges in the design and performance of 2D transistors remain to be addressed.

With this cross-journal Collection, the editors at Nature Communications, Communications Engineering and Scientific Reports invite manuscripts reporting reliable strategies for (down-)scaling, p-doping and contact engineering of 2D transistors. Nature Communications and Communications Engineering will consider original Articles, Reviews and Perspectives. Scientific Reports will consider original Articles. 

To submit, see the participating journals

This Collection is open for submissions from all authors – and not by invitation only – on the condition that the manuscripts fall within the scope of the Collection and of Nature CommunicationsCommunications Engineering, and Scientific Reports more generally.

All manuscripts will be considered for publication according to the editorial policies of the specific journal through which they are submitted, namely Nature CommunicationsCommunications Engineering, and Scientific Reports . Visit Nature portfolio’s Collections guidelines for more details.

When submitting your manuscript to Nature CommunicationsCommunications Engineering, or Scientific Reports via our online submission system, please choose the appropriate Collection title from the drop-down menu on the submission form. Please be sure to express your interest in the Collection in your cover letter. Please only submit to one journal, but note authors have the option to transfer to another participating journal following the editors’ recommendation.

This Collection has not been supported by sponsorship.
