Abstract
We demonstrate a considerable suppression of the low-field leakage through a Y2O3 topgate insulator on graphene by applying high-pressure O2 at 100 atm during post-deposition annealing (HP-PDA). Consequently, the quantum capacitance measurement for the monolayer graphene reveals the largest Fermi energy modulation (EF = ~0.52 eV, i.e., the carrier density of ~2*10^13 cm^-2) in the solid-state topgate insulators reported so far. HP-PDA is the robust method to improve the electrical quality of high-k insulators on graphene.

Permittivity Increase of Yttrium-Doped HfO2 through Structural Phase Transformation

TL;DR: An approach to control the dielectric properties of hafnium-based oxide films with an intentional structural phase transformation was proposed and demonstrated in this paper, where yttrium serves effectively as a dopant to induce a phase transformation from the monoclinic to the cubic phase even at 600°C.

A self-consistent theory for graphene transport.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that most of the observed transport properties of graphene sheets at zero magnetic field can be explained by scattering from charged impurities, with weak dependence on impurity concentration.

Gap state analysis in electric-field-induced band gap for bilayer graphene

TL;DR: The systematic estimation of the energy gap by both quantum capacitance and transport measurements and the density of states for gap states by the conductance method suggest that the reduction of gap states below ~1011 eV−1cm−2 by continual improvement of the gate stack makes bilayer graphene a promising candidate for future nanoelectronic device applications.

Direct-bandgap properties and evidence for ultraviolet lasing of hexagonal boron nitride single crystal.

TL;DR: HBN is shown to be a promising material for compact ultraviolet laser devices because it has a direct bandgap in the ultraviolet region and evidence for room-temperature ultraviolet lasing at 215 nm by accelerated electron excitation is provided.

Measurement of the quantum capacitance of graphene.

TL;DR: The results strongly indicate that the long-standing puzzle about the interfacial capacitance in carbon-based electrodes has a quantum origin, and suggest that charged impurities also influences the quantum capacitance.

Oxidation resistance of graphene-coated Cu and Cu/Ni alloy

TL;DR: Graphene films grown by chemical vapor deposition are demonstrated for the first time to protect the surface of the metallic growth substrates of Cu and Cu/Ni alloy from air oxidation, allowing pure metal surfaces only one atom away from reactive environments.
