(Invited) Promise of 2D Materials Beyond Graphene

Two dimensional systems, by the virtue of their unique material properties and excellent electrostatic integrity, provide immense opportunities not only to explore fundamental physics but also to solve critical technological problems. Graphene, Phosphorene, h-BN, MoS₂, WSe₂ and many others belong to this class of material which we are exploring. The fact that this class of materials contains metals, semiconductors, insulators and even superconductors at cryogenic temperature makes them extremely appealing across all scientific and engineering disciplines. In my talk I will demonstrate how “Contact Engineering” can be implemented to enhance the electrical performance of the 2D materials. Then I will talk about “Doping Constraints” and various “Scaling Aspects” of 2D materials. Finally I will discuss “Integration and Application” of 2D materials for flexible and transparent electronics as well as low power device design.
