A team of researchers in the UK and Switzerland has unveiled a new theoretical framework to quantify how transparent a 2D material is to an electrostatic field. The theory will help physicists and device engineers design better quantum capacitors (an array of subatomic power storage components that can store high-energy densities, for example, in batteries) and vertical transistors. The work could lead to improved optoelectronics that consume less power and dissipate less heat….
