Modern internet/computer technologies primarily depend on the micro- devices fabricated with the CMOS techniques. The CMOS devices are a variation of FETs (Field Effect Transistors) on semiconductors, and the transport properties of a FET are controlled by applied electric voltages. Traditional semiconductors such as "Si" or "GaAs" have been used for the CMOS/FET devices.  In a noble system of  NbSe2, superconductivity intricately balances with a CDW (Charge Density Wave) state which tends to stabilize an insulating phase and to destabilize superconductivity.  A FET structure on a NbSe2 single crystal has, for the first time, fabricated and how the balance between superconductivity and the CDW state can be manipulated by applied electric voltage will be investigated.
