CSP - 5th International Symposium on Graphene Devices (ISGD-5)
Abstract
a. Technical: Graphene holds promise for a new material~driven revolution of modern society, maybe to the same extent as silicon and plastics have been earlier in history. However, the harnessing of their properties for practical applications is far from straightforward. A whole set of in-depth theoretical and practical understanding, refinement and standardization of definitions and characterization methods, reproducibility of synthesis and properties, has to be achieved. As such, there is a strong need for the international scientific community (academia, government labs and industry) to come together and join efforts specifically on these tasks. The symposium covers both state-of-the-art experimental and theoretical discoveries, with strong focus towards advances for applications in electronics, optics, spintronics, micro-electro-mechanical systems, energy, as well as bio-applications. In recent years, its scope has been extended to other 2D materials such as transition metal dichalcogenides due to the rapid advances in this area. ISGD has a track record of high quality papers, world-wide representation and highly stimulating discussions. ONRG support will ensure a high quality symposium by increasing the participation of young researcher and students, on top of attracting world-class Australian researchers to this forum. b. Relevance: The symposium and the resulted scientific exchange will contribute to the knowledge for the Naval S&T Strategic Plan~s focus areas of Autonomy and Unmanned Systems, Electromagnetic Maneuver Warfare, Information Dominance~Cyber, and Power and Energy. c. Coordination: ONR 31, Dr. Kenneth Caster of AOARD, and Dr. Christopher Drew of ITC-PAC d. Desired Outcome: (1) meaningful information exchange and discussion of research ideas, (2) up-to-date information on technology status, and (3) collection of meeting material for future reference and analysis.
