Interfaces, Catalysis & Devices
Surface adsorption, catalytic properties, and routes toward integrated electronic applications.
Overview
What we study
Connecting wafer-scale 2D materials to surface chemistry, catalysis and integrated electronic applications.
Beyond growth and stacking, the group explores surface adsorption and catalytic properties of low-dimensional materials, and how film quality and interfaces enable device-relevant functions.
- Methods
- Surface and catalytic measurements, interface engineering, device-oriented characterisation
- Focus
- Adsorption, proton-related catalysis, environmentally stable films, integration-ready interfaces
- Outcome
- Material platforms that bridge fundamental 2D chemistry with electronic applications
Key questions
Where the science is heading
Surface adsorption on low-dimensional materials can open catalytic pathways, including converting hydrogen into protons on two-dimensional crystals.
Environmentally stable transition-metal selenide films and related materials are developed so growth quality survives ambient handling and device processing.
Wafer-scale uniformity, clean transfer and well-controlled interfaces are prerequisites for using graphene and other 2D materials in integrated electronics.
