Exploring the impact of processes on device operation

A major challenge in using 2D materials is linked to the impact of the environment on its properties. These effects are mitigated by careful material and process selection. The transition from lab – to – fab is enabled by setting up dedicated tools and processes. Gaining insights on the source of process variations and their impact on the variability of device parameters is key to making the right choices in the set-up of pilot-line processes.

Diversity in Graphene


The Diversity in Graphene session on Tuesday, 5 September will feature talks about the key elements of a healthy work culture. Déborah Rupert will present the key elements of a healthy work culture and how we can support ourselves and each other to thrive and prevent burnout. Eva Ranehill will present her research findings encompassing two pivotal topics: female leadership and the impact of PhD studies on mental health care uptake.

EU-UAE International Workshop


The Graphene Flagship is building a global, collaborative network of graphene researchers and industry partners. The workshop is co-organised by the Graphene Flagship and Khalifa University. This workshop will provide the opportunity for researchers and industry stakeholders in Europe and United Arab Emirates to discuss topics of common interest, share research results with promising application potential and explore possible new collaborations and incubation of joint ventures.
