However\, it is well-known that Moore’s law and Dennard’s scal ing that propelled Silicon into this dominant position are long dead. Ther efore\, a fervent search for (i) new semiconductors that could directly re place silicon or (ii) new architectures with novel materials/devices added onto silicon or (iii) new physics/state-variables or a combination of abo ve has been the subject of much of the electronic materials and devices re search of the past 2 decades. In short\, there is a pressing need for comp lementing and supplementing Silicon to operate with greater energy efficie ncy\, speed and handle greater amounts of data. This is further necessary since a completely novel and paradigm changing computing platform (e.g. al l optical computing or quantum computing) remains out of reach for now.\n\ nThe above is\, however\, not possible without fundamental innovation in n ew electronic materials and devices. Therefore\, in this talk\, I will try to make the case of how novel layered two-dimensional (2D) chalcogenide m aterials1 and three-dimensional (3D) nitride materials might present inter esting avenues to overcome some of the limitations being faced by Silicon (as well as Silicon Carbide) hardware.\n\nI will end the talk with a broad perspective on the role of novel materials that could turbo-charge silico n\, silicon carbide and other pervasive semiconductor technologies for ele ctronic computing.\n\nReferences:\n(1) Song\, S.\; Rahaman\, M.\; Jariwala \, D.
