Graphene Devices and New Low Dimensional Materials

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

While graphene is a still a relatively new material, it has now been around for a little over 10 years, with the discovery of exfoliated graphene in 2004 and of large scale CVD graphene in 2009. Since then enormous progress has been made in terms of the synthesis and characterization of its numerous exceptional properties. We were fortunate to be part of this exceptional journey and made several important contributions on CVD graphene, in particular the determination of the phonon dispersion using different isotopes, the discovery of the connection between strong and weak localization in weak to strongly disordered graphene, the discovery of fractal graphene and its robustness to the quantum Hall effect, and the determination of the local growth rates, to name just a few. A lot of our more recent research has also focused on developing new applications, since many of graphene’s fundamental properties are now well understood. The main goal for us now, is to use graphene as a tool and platform for new discoveries as well as for graphene based applications.
