Overview
The aim of the workshop was to review recent progress in this rapidly developing research field, to discuss needs and challenges, and to further the strong tradition of collaboration between the U.S. and European Union. This third annual workshop followed prior workshops, in 2016 in Manchester, UK and in 2015 in Arlington, Virginia, USA. The 2017 workshop was sponsored by NSF under Grant EFMA-1748703 and coorganized by US and European researchers co-chaired by Profs. James Hwang (LehighUniversity), Alan Seabaugh (University of Notre Dame), Vladimir Falko (University of Manchester), and Frank Koppens (Institute of Photonic Sciences).
The workshop topics ranged widely between graphene and other 2D layered semiconductors such as phosphorene, transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), hexagonal boron nitride, tertiary compounds of carbo-nitrides, and complex oxides. Techniques of scalable synthesis of these materials on multiple substrates and control of layer number and defect density were discussed.
