"Superior carrier tuning in ultrathin superconducting materials by elec" by Peng Liu, Bin Lei et al.
Two-dimensional (2D) superconductors with excellent crystallinity down to the monolayer have many unusual properties absent in the three-dimensional (3D) bulk, such as continuous phase transition, quantum metallic state and localization of electrons. Preparation of 2D superconductors has been challenging, owing to poor quality and extreme sensitivity to air exposure at ultralow thickness, but exfoliation methods have recently been developed to achieve perfectly crystallized ultrathin superconductors. The electric-double-layer transistor and ionic field-effect transistor are powerful electric-f...
