Research

We cover experimental and theoretical aspects of 2D materials and run the 2DTU fabrication and processing facility for 2D materials within 3 research clusters: Electronics, Light-matter Interactions and Matter Transport. We collaborate across the teams and disciplines in numerous projects, and are always interested in exploring new ideas.
