The focus of the 2D Materials Research group is devoted to the field of graphene and hBN process and technology development. It deals with fundamental investigations of graphene and hBN as well as the integration of graphene based novel modules into the silicon technology environment.
On one hand, it is of utmost importance to understand and control the morphological, crystallographic, chemical properties and growth mechanisms of 2D materials. On the other hand, the developments of graphene devices are also performed in conditions resembling the Si-based IC production environment as closely as possible. Therefore, we are aiming to bridge the gap between current graphene research and state-of-the-art 200 mm CMOS technologies. Successful collaboration between the Materials Research and Technology departments as well as collaborations with national and European partners are established in order to ensure the outcomes of the 2D Materials R&D.
