last virtual meeting of the GDR for this academic year (proposed by Salome Forel, LMI, Lyon) : Tuesday, 16 July 2024, 11h :

Humberto Terrones (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, USA),

Electronic and Optical Properties of 2D Materials

Abstract : 2-D materials have attracted great attention in recent years due to the evidence of extraordinary electronic and optical properties for developing new materials for quantum applications. I will review the main electronic and optical properties of graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and h-BN focusing on the nonlinear properties of TMDs and single photon emission (SPE) in h-BN. I will make a case for revisiting the synthesis of TMDs nanotubes and h-BN nanotubes for quantum applications such as photon entanglement and SPE. The role of defect engineering in the control of quantum properties will be discussed.

After years of research, new high-end applications of SWCNTs are emerging, often developed jointly between academic labs and industrial partners. Examples include SWCNT-based MOSFETs (TSMC), CNT-RAM non-volatile memories (Fujitsu), dense Nanotube mats for fuel cell electrodes (NAWA Technologies)...
This discussion will take place in Lyon from Monday, June 10th starting at 14:00, until Tuesday, June 11th at 17:30.
