Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A pressure sensing device having a Dirac material and a method of operating the same are provided. The pressure sensing device includes a Dirac material pattern disposed on a substrate and having a band structure in which Dirac cones meet at a Dirac point. A source electrode and a drain electrode are respectively connected to the Dirac material pattern. A spacer layer including a cavity on the Dirac material pattern is disposed on the substrate. A gate electrode overlapping the Dirac material pattern is disposed on the cavity.

First claim
