Workshop on Layered Materials
Abstract
Layered (two-dimensional) materials feature excellent properties combined with numerous potential applications, e.g., in catalysis, separation, or spintronics. They can also be successfully used to prepare other materials, which are otherwise difficult to synthesize. Considering their relevance among the hottest research trends, our Workshop on Layered Materials will therefore focus on recent advances, key breakthroughs and exciting developments in synthesis methods for the preparation of various layered materials, on state-of-the-art experimental techniques for the characterization and theoretical modelling of their properties and on their potential applications in a wide range of areas. In terms of materials, the presentations will primarily address layered synthetic oxides, functionalized graphenes, layered carbon nitrides, MXenes, two-dimensional zeolites and ultrathin oxide films. The Workshop will consist of a series of guest lectures delivered by some of the most influential scientists in this field (including Yuri Gogotsi, Drexel University, USA; Ferdi SchŸth, Max-Planck Institute MŸlheim, Germany; Gianfranco Pacchioni, University Milano-Bicocca, Italy; Josef Breu, Bayreuth University, Germany; Michal Otyepka, University of Olomouc, Czech Republic; Ajayan Vinu, Newcastle University, Australia). Approximately 25 presentations will cover a broad spectrum of topics related to layered materials, in parallel to two poster sessions. Over 60 researchers, including students and postdocs, are expected to participate in this workshop on layered materials at Liblice Castle, Czech Republic.
