Our research aims to propose a selective gas sensor based on a single graphene-silicon Schottky junction. By polarizing the sensor with selected voltage, we move between different regions of its gas sensitivity dependent on the lighting conditions. Our results show that low detection limits (36 ppb for NO2, 238 ppb for NH3, and 640 ppb for C3H6O) a...
When two-dimensional (2D) electron or hole systems are scaled to nanometer dimensions, their resonant plasma frequencies can extend into the terahertz (THz) range. In such nanostructures, the addition of metallic gates enables control over the 2D carrier density, facilitating voltage-tunable resonant plasma frequencies. This capability makes gated...
