报告内容
Two-dimensional (2D) materials are layered crystals with strong in-plane covalent bonds and weak interlayer van der Waals bonds. These materials have many unique chemical, mechanical, optical and electrical properties, which not only provide a platform to investigate fundamental physical phenomena but also may provide solutions to some of today’s most pressing technologicalchallenges. In this talk, I will present our work on understanding the electrical properties of graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides, black phosphorus, group IV chalcogenides, and their heterostructures.1-3 I will also present our work on the nano-scale electronic devices (logic devices and radio frequency devices) and photonic devices (plasmonic devices and photo-detectors) based on these 2D materials.
