[PAST EVENT] Physics Special Colloquium
March 14, 2016
4pm - 5pm
Abstract:
2D materials are a large and growing area of study for both fundamental physics and device applications. We shall give an overview of some of the many different 2D materials and their properties, before focusing on systems where two or more materials are combined in a heterostructure. We shall discuss the essential physics of the inter-layer bonding for stacked layers, and the interesting properties of 1D interfaces between two side-by-side 2D layers.
