Beyond Graphene: Electronic Properties of Van der Waals Heterostructures — •Andre Geim — University of Manchester, UK

Following the advent of graphene, several other one-atom or one-molecule thick crystals have been isolated and tentatively studied. They range from semiconducting monolayers to wide-gap insulators to metals. This library of two-dimensional materials opens a possibility to construct various 3D structures with on-demand properties, which do not exist in nature but can be assembled in Lego style by stacking individual atomic planes on top of each other in a desired sequence. I will overview our recent progress in making such materials and studying their electronic properties.
