1. Thermal Transport in Layered Materials, Devices, and Systems

   11 Apr 2024 | | Contributor(s):: Eric Pop

   The thermal properties of layered materials (like graphene and MoS2) are an active area of investigation, particularly due to their anisotropic and tunable thermal conductivity. We have studied their behavior as part of transistors, where self-heating is a major challenge for performance and...

2. What Are 2D Materials Good For?

   11 Apr 2024 | | Contributor(s):: Eric Pop

   This talk will present my (admittedly biased) perspective of what two-dimensional (2D) materials could be good for. For example, they may be good for applications where their ultrathin nature and lack of dangling bonds give them distinct advantages, such as flexible electronics or DNA-sorting...

7. Hydrodynamic Phenomena in Thermal Transport

   01 Sep 2022 | | Contributor(s):: F. Xavier Alvarez

   The talk will cover some of the most recent evidences in the theoretical and experimental research on thermal transport and we will analyze them in the framework of the Kinetic/Collective model (KCM), developed to give a more generalized framework to describe thermal experiments.

9. Novel Two-dimensional (2D) Materials and Devices for Biomimetic Sensing and Computing

   16 Aug 2021 | | Contributor(s):: Saptarshi Das, NACK Network

   Many animals outsmart humans in sensory skills. In fact, animals can do much more than just see, smell, touch, taste, and hear. For example, octopuses possess polarized vision, bats use ultrasound to echolocate, hyper touch sensitive spiders can trace the origin of micro-vibrations and sharks can...

10. IWCN 2021: Ab initio Quantum Transport Simulation of Lateral Heterostructures Based on 2D Materials: Assessment of the Coupling Hamiltonians

    14 Jul 2021 | | Contributor(s):: Adel Mfoukh, Marco Pala

    Lateral heterostructures based on lattice-matched 2D materials are a promising option to design efficient electron devices such as MOSFETs [1], tunnel-FETs [2] and energy-filtering FETs [3]. In order to rigorously describe the transport through such heterostructures, an ab-initio approach based...

20. Mechanical Exfoliation as a Route to Nanomanufacturing of 2D van der Waals Bonded

    11 May 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Daryl Chrzan

    In this talk I present a mechanical exfoliation method able to reliably produce large patterned monolayer samples and place them with upon a substrate in desired locations. The method relies on the epitaxial strain imposed upon the layer to be exfoliated by the deposition of a thin metallic film.
