Symposium F.EL03—Emerging Low-Dimensional Chalcogenides for Electronics and Photonics

Traditional chalcogenides have been widely explored in the past with potential applications in photovoltaics, thermoelectrics, multiferroics, photoelectrochemical cells, etc. Despite these broad applications of bulk chalcogenides, emerging chalcogenides with low-dimensional crystal structures (i.e. 1D and 2D) provide exciting materials platform with unique electronic and optical properties. This symposium will focus on the latest research of the emerging low-dimensional chalcogenides, and bring together scientists and researchers from academia, national labs, and industry to discuss the current status and future directions. Abstracts are solicited in the areas of interest that include theory, synthesis, and characterization as well as device applications of emerging low-dimensional chalcogenides in photovoltaics, photoelectrochemical, light-emission diodes (LED),optoelectronics, thermoelectrics, multiferroics, and other electronic and photonic devices.

Topics will include:

  • Emerging 1D and 2D chalcogenides and their physical properties
  • Advanced synthesis of low-dimensional chalcogenides
  • Novel characterization methods to understand physical and chemical properties of chalcogenides
  • Emerging low-dimensional chalcogenides for electronics
  • Emerging low-dimensional chalcogenides for computing and sensing
  • Emerging low-dimensional chalcogenides in energy conversion and storage
  • Emerging low-dimensional chalcogenides for other electronic and photonic applications
  • Surface, interface, and defects in low-dimensional chalcogenides
  • Degradation, passivation and stabilization of low-dimensional chalcogenides
  • Theory-guided discovery of 1D and 2D chalcogenides
  • Modeling and simulation of emerging chalcogenides
