Advancing 2D Materials by Synthetic Design

Two-dimensional (2D) materials offer a wealth of extraordinary properties, which are unparalleled in the 3D world and are key for meeting the compelling demand for higher performance electronics and spintronics. This project will develop new approaches to 2D materials using synthetic assembly of molecular building blocks, which provides chemical encoding of specific material functionalities. The grant will finance the recipient, one postdoc, two PhD students, and equipment.
