2D Quantum Matter

2D materials such as graphene, transition metal dichalcogenides, and other graphene-related materials are today at the forefront of scientic 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 will also be asked to present a poster of their current activities, to promote interaction with the lecturers and with the other students.

Course leader

Prof. Stefano Roddaro

Target group

PhD and late-stage master students in Physics, Material Science and Engineering

Course 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.
