Description
Our research involves the development of two-dimensional hybrid systems (e.g. graphene/nanocrystals and 2D materials heterostructures) and their integration into existing organic and inorganic platforms. We are interested in understanding the fundamental chemical, optical, and electrical properties of the hybrid systems, and their interactions with the environment and their substrates. For this purpose, we employ a large range of surface diagnostic techniques for materials characterization including XPS, AFM, SEM, XRD, and Raman spectroscopy. Electrical properties are characterized using electrical probe stations and physical property measurement systems. Optical properties are determined by ellipsometry, spectrophotometry among others. Device fabrication is particularly important for this program. All needed facilities are provided.
