WU1R16 Summary Report: Controlling the Interaction Between 2D Materials and Active Layers
Abstract
This report summarizes the accomplishments of the Materials and Chemistry 6.1 basic research performed under WU 6A61 titled Controlling the Interaction between 2D Materials and Active Layers. The work was carried out FY20-FY23 with the objective to understand and manipulate the interaction between Liquid Crystal (LC) and 2D materials by characterizing the optical and electronic interactions between basic LC and 2D materials. We used experimental and computational methods to develop a framework for understanding interactions and employed computational methods to design system with optimized interactions. As this program seeks to combine 2-D Materials and soft matter, we will understand nanoscale interactions, use soft matter phases to improve the organic-inorganic heterojunction in terms of functionality and processing to develop new class of hybrid nanomaterials and potentially impart quasiparticle control.
