Events

The Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) has four main thematic research areas; Smart and Function Materials, Connected Devices, Next Generation Energy Systems and Therapeutics and Theranostics. To showcase the work going on within these areas, WIN will be holding monthly Thematic Seminars featuring our members and their research group members.

The Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology and Waterloo International are proud to jointly present an Innovation Seminar by Fanny Bousquet, First Secretary at the Embassy of Canada to the Netherlands.

In this seminar, Fanny Bousquet will discuss bilateral innovation policy relations between the Netherlands and Canada. This seminar will be open to the Waterloo community to inspire interdisciplinary conversations and connections. Refreshments will be provided!

The Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) and the Department Mechanical and Mechatronic Engineering (MME) are proud to present a joint seminar by Professor Bijoy Bera from the Transport Phenomena Group at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft).

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.

Ensuring Accuracy for Graphene Applications through Measurement and Standardisation
