2D materials: from scalable MOCVD growth to quantitative structural characterization at the atomic scale

Abstract

Two-dimensional materials are prime contenders to enhance semiconductor technology. Their rich compositional and stacking varieties yield virtually endless possibilities to tailor device properties. For example, monolayer GaS exhibits a bandgap in the ultraviolet and could yield solar-blind photodiodes or even replace GaN as emitter in LEDs covering the whole visible spectrum.

The Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN), the Centre for Bioengineering and Biotechnology (CBB) and the Faculty of Health are pleased to present a joint workshop on the theme of "Health Technologies."

This event will take place on Friday, May 5, 2023 from 9:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. in QNC 1501. A networking lunch will be hosted after the presentations.
