Outline of Final Research Achievements

Ultrathin conductive materials with a few atomic-layer thicknesses exhibit fascinating properties due to the confinement of the conduction of electrons and/or holes within two dimensions, and hence are expected to open the door to future electronics. In the present study, we studied electronic structure and electric properties of ultrathin conducting materials. The first example is a few-layer indium film on a silicon surface. By inserting a magnesium monolayer to the Si--In interface, we have succeeded to realize nearly free-standing indium bilayers. Another example is ultrathin films of bismuth telluride (BT), which is a layered topological insulator. We succeeded in precision layer growth of BT on insulator surface, and experimentally established that the electrical conduction in BT is localized within the Te-Te interfaces.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

エレクトロニクスの発展は、半導体素子の微細化と素子材料の多様化を通した高機能化、多機能化によって支えられてきた。本研究は、このようなエレクトロニクス研究の動向と方向を一にしつつ、その先を行く先鋭的な方法論に基づいて、原子層科学に基づく低次元物質の精密科学を開拓し、新たな低次元物性、超薄膜物性の方法論を切り開くものである。とりわけ、テルル化ビスマス超薄膜における原子レベル電子輸送経路が決定されたことにより、この電子輸送経路を化学的、物理的に修飾、制御する可能性が開拓できたことは、学術的にも、社会的にも大きな意義があると考える。
