Potentially Useful and Novel Properties of Doped 2-Dimensional Materials

Abstract

The primary objective of this research is to further investigate the interesting and novel electrical transport, electronic and magnetic effects thus far observed in doped graphene and to extend this work to other two dimensional materials if possible. The possibility of two dimensional magnetic materials, two dimensional superconductors, and, potentially a form of two dimensional spin polarization gate would all be enhanced by having a family of dopants and materials that can be tailored for particular properties via doping, applied bias field and patterning. As a step towards these novel and potentially useful devices it is necessary that a more complete understanding of the underlying mechanism(s) of the unusual magnetic, electronic and transport response of doped graphene (time and budget permitting other two dimensional materials as well) be achieved. For those reasons achieving this understanding is the single most significant objective of this work.
