2D materials such as graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides, and other graphene-related materials are today at the forefront of scientific research, with recent promising twists in the direction of topologically non-trivial states of matter.
During the Summer School, physics and engineering students will be trained in state-of-the-art theory, synthesis, nanofabrication, and electronic/optoelectronic applications of 2D crystals.
Renowned scientists, who are currently active in this research field at an international level, will lead the training activities, in the form of a set of 12 frontal lectures.
Students are encouraged to present a poster of their current activities, as a mean to promote their work and the interaction among the other students and between students and lecturers. A “Best poster award” will be given at the conclusion of the Summer School.
Aim
To give the opportunity to students to interact with leading-edge scientists in the context of 2D materials so as to learn about subjects that are usually hardly touched during standard educational programs.
