What are the specific materials used in the conducting layers and doping layers?
The specific materials used in the conducting layers are topological semi-metals and/or topological insulators, while the doping layers consist of materials with higher charge carrier density.
How does the charge carrier doping layer increase the charge carrier density in the conducting layers?
The charge carrier doping layer increases the charge carrier density in the conducting layers by introducing additional charge carriers with higher density, enhancing the overall conductivity of the structure.
Original Abstract Submitted
An interconnect structure including conducting layers of topological semi-metals and/or topological insulators. To increase charge carrier density in the conducting layers, a charge carrier doping layer present on at least one surface of the one or more conductive layers of topological semi-metals. The charge carrying doping layers have a charge carrier density greater than the topological semi-metals and/or topological insulators of the one or more conductive layers.
