(AGENPARL) - Roma, 16 Maggio 2023(AGENPARL) – ENSCHEDE (NL) mar 16 maggio 2023 Researchers from the University of Twente proved that germanene, a two-dimensional material made of germanium atoms, behaves as a topological insulator. It is the first 2D topological insulator that consists of a single element. It also has the unique ability to switch between ‘on’ and ‘off’ states, comparable to transistors. This could lead to more energy-efficient electronics.
