Heterojunctions made of 2D materials provide promising properties for the realization of tunnel transistors. We demonstrate band-to-band tunneling between layers of WSe2 and MoS2 contacted with few-layered graphene on both sides of the junction and completely encapsulated with hexagonal boron nitride. We also use graphene as a gate electrode, allowing us to realize devices made entirely of different 2D materials. We observe negative differential resistance confirming the tunneling transport in our devices without using any high-k dielectric or chemical doping.

The recent years have seen a revolution in the science and practice of crystal growth. Novel mechanisms of nucleation and growth have decoded mysteries that have puzzled the community for ages. Elaborate processes and advanced techniques have birthed materials with unprecedented properties and exciting applications. Rationales developed within the crystal growth realm have illuminated longstanding conundrums in geology, biology, and medicine. 

These jointly-held conferences are the premier forums to discuss the huge modern advances in all aspects of crystal growth, both in the bulk and as epitaxial films. We will continue the tradition of numerous ACCGE and OMVPE meetings and bring together the topmost experts in the field from industry, academia, and government laboratories. Joining the two conferences affords an exceptional opportunity to present and discuss original results and provides a venue for newcomers to embrace the hot, new advances in science and technology. Our format is designed to maximize interaction among leading specialists and the wider crystal growth community, with oral and poster sessions as well as plenary and invited speakers to provide a broad picture of the up-to-date developments in the field.

### ** History of DRC**
The Device Research Conference (DRC) began in the pre-transistor era with the 1942 establishment of the Conference on Electron Device Research (CEDR). Following William Shockley’s 1948 CEDR presentation of the transistor device, the Solid-State Device Research Conference (SSDRC) was established, with invitation-only attendance.

In the ensuing decades, many exciting firsts were presented at SSDRC, including the use of impurity diffusion in silicon and germanium, the first practical MOSFET, and the first lattice-matched heterojunction.

In 1969, under the leadership or Herbert Kroemer and Cal Quate, the CEDR and SSDRC merged into DRC. In 1970, attendance was opened to all, and the first DRAM (dynamic random-access memory), room temperature lasers, and first CCD (charge-coupled device) were reported—all in the same 1970 DRC meeting!

1976 saw the first official coordination of tandem meetings between DRC and the Electronic Materials Conference (EMC) to bring together the electronic materials and device communities—a custom which persists to this day. In 1991, DRC began publishing its digest with IEEE; they can all be found [here on IEEE Xplore](https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/conhome/1000199/all-proceedings). Throughout this period, DRC featured reports of many novel and record-setting devices, including the HEMT (High Electron Mobility Transistor), VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser), HBT (Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor), and nanoscale MOSFETs.

In recent years, DRC has continued to be the world’s premier forum to present innovative semiconductor device research with work on organic thin film transistors, graphene and carbon nanotube transistors, and 2D materials all featuring prominently in the 1990s through to the present day. In 2017, we celebrated DRC’s 75th anniversary with special sessions and an [article in the Journal of the Electron Device Society](https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=8168249&isnumber=8232486). DRC technical topics continue to evolve with emerging device trends such as memory devices, quantum devices, optoelectronics/photonics, and wide bandgap power devices to reflect the exciting work being done by a diverse community of device engineers around the globe.

Today, as we look forward to the next 75+ years of device innovation, DRC continues to lead the way in showcasing top-caliber research, facilitating vibrant discussion and debate and acting as a platform to nurture the next generation of device engineers. We welcome you to join us at the next DRC!

DRC continues to be the world’s premier forum to present innovative semiconductor device research with work on organic thin film transistors, graphene and carbon nanotube transistors, and 2D materials all featuring prominently in the 1990s through to the present day. In 2017, we celebrated DRC’s 75th anniversary with special sessions and an article in the Journal of the Electron Device Society. 
DRC technical topics continue to evolve with emerging device trends such as memory devices, quantum devices, optoelectronics/photonics, and wide bandgap power devices to reflect the exciting work being done by a diverse community of device engineers around the globe.

We for the first time report GFETs with 2nm crystalline CaF2 as a gate insulator. We perform the analysis of device-to-device variability and hysteresis dynamics in these devices before and after annealing at 175C. Our results suggest that the counterclockwise hysteresis observed in some devices is due to adsorbates as it can be suppressed by high-temperature treatment. The remaining clockwise hysteresis is record-small which suggests that CaF2 contains much fewer insulator defects as compared to amorphous oxides like SiO2 or Al2O3. Thus, CaF2 is a very promising insulator for 2D electronics.

CVD-GFETs with Record-small Hysteresis Owing to 2nm Epitaxial CaF2 Insulators

We demonstrated the impact of dielectric material and thickness on the stability of ITO FETs, showing that HfO2 dielectrics are more bias-stable than Al2O3 dielectrics. The ITO FETs with 10 nm HfO2 exhibit less VT shifting under both positive and negative bias stressing. This contradicts previous stability studies of other amorphous oxide semiconductors (AOS) (e.g. IGZO, In2O3) that demonstrate higher stability with Al2O3, and demonstrates the need for customized dielectric materials for better oxide FET stability.

Bias Stress Stability of ITO Transistors and its Dependence on Dielectric Properties

This work describes high performance TiO2 thin film transistors using TiO2 as the gate dielectric and channel materials. Bilayer dielectric with high conduction band offset is needed for further enhacing the device performance when TiO2 is used as part of the gate dielectric.

High-performance TiO2 thin film transistors using TiO2 as both channel and dielectric

AlGaN/GaN metal-insulator-semiconductor high electron mobility transistors (MIS-HEMTs) with Al2O3 gate insulator were demonstrated on hybrid oriented silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrate.
The current gain cut-off frequency (fT) of 49.4 GHz and maximum oscillation frequency (fmax) of 54.3 GHz was achieved with 0.3 µm gate length.
Compared to high-resistivity Si (HR-Si) substrate, the current collapse effect can be reduced.
The approach of co-integrated substrate using patterned structures with various dimensions leads to strain relaxation, which contributes to the reduction of current collapse.
