CFN Virtual Colloquium

"Peel and Stack: Ultimate Heterogeneous Integration for Next Generation Electronics"

Presented by Jeehwan Kim, MIT

Thursday, June 2, 2022, 4:00 pm — Videoconference / Virtual Event (see link below)

For future of electronics such as bioelectronics, 3D integrated electronics, and bendable electronics, needs for flexibility and stackability of electronic products have substantially grown up. However, conventional wafer-based single-crystalline semiconductors cannot catch up with such trends because they are bound to the thick rigid wafers such that they are neither flexible nor stackable. Although polymer-based organic electronic materials are more compatible as they are mechanically complaint and less costly than inorganic counterparts, their electronic/photonic performance is substantially inferior to that of single-crystalline inorganic materials. For the past half a decade, my research group at MIT has focused on mitigating such performance-mechanical compliance dilemma by developing methods to obtain cheap, flexible, stackable, single-crystalline inorganic systems. In today's talk, I will discuss about our strategies to realize such a dream electronic system [1-5] and how these strategies unlock new ways of manufacturing advanced electronic systems [6-10]. I will highlight our 2D materials-based layer transfer (2DLT) technique that can produce single-crystalline freestanding membranes from any compound materials with their excellent semiconducting performance. In addition, I will present unprecedented artificial heterostructures enabled by stacking of those freestanding 3D material membranes, e.g., world's smallest vertically-stacked full color micro-LEDs [10], world's best multiferroic devices [7], battery-less wireless e-skin [9,10], and reconfigurable hetero-integrated chips with AI accelerators [8,10].
