Abstract:
We propose to organize a symposium focusing on the modelling, synthesis, characterization, and application of two-dimensional (2D) electronic materials. Topics will include, but are not limited to, novel synthesis methods of a wide range of 2D materials, such as 2D transition metal chalcogenides, oxides, nitrides and halides, characterization of their electronic, magnetic, and optical properties, and theoretical studies of these materials’ ground and excited states, and device demonstrations. The symposium will cover advanced characterization techniques, including physical measurements and machine-learning-assisted methods, and the application of 2D ceramics such as oxides and nitrides in electronic and quantum devices, such as transistors, sensors, and memory devices. Challenges and opportunities in large-scale production will be addressed, with special attention given to the role of defects, interfaces, and strain engineering in tuning properties. This symposium aims to bring together researchers from diverse backgrounds to exchange ideas and foster collaborations in this rapidly evolving field.
