Claim:
1. A semiconductor structure comprising: a plurality of ribbons directly on a carbon doped silicon germanium substrate, the plurality of ribbons comprising a mixed ionic-electronic conduction (MIEC) layer including three individual layers of molybdenum disulfide stacked one on top of another, wherein each layer of molybdenum disulfide comprises two hexagonal planes of sulfur atoms separated by one hexagonal plane of molybdenum atoms, the MIEC layer further comprising interstitial chromium atoms at a concentration of approximately 8%; a first titanium electrode at a first end of the plurality of ribbons, a bottom surface of the first titanium electrode is in direct contact with a top surface of the MIEC layer; and a second titanium electrode at a second end of the plurality of ribbons such that current flows horizontally from the first titanium electrode to the second titanium electrode and through the MIEC layer, a bottom surface of the second titanium electrode is in direct contact with a top surface of the MIEC layer, wherein each of the plurality of ribbons is approximately 1 nm wide and extends from the first titanium electrode to the second titanium electrode.
