Computer Engineered 2D Materials - Host for Unconventional Properties

Explore the fascinating world of computer-engineered 2D materials and their unconventional properties in this 50-minute lecture by Tanusri Saha Dasgupta. Delve into the cutting-edge research on emergent electronic, magnetic, and topological phenomena in two-dimensional synthetic structures of quantum materials. Learn how reduced dimensionality and the interplay between electronic correlations, spin-orbit coupling, crystal structure, symmetry, and topology lead to novel collective phenomena. Discover the potential of artificially engineered heterostructures, including oxide interfaces, twisted van der Waals materials, and other innovative layered materials. Gain insights into the latest developments in magnetism, topological superconductivity, flat bands, correlated phenomena, and quantum simulators using engineered 2D materials. This lecture is part of the "Engineered 2D Quantum Materials" program organized by the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences, bringing together physicists and materials scientists to explore the frontiers of 2D material engineering and its implications for future technological advancements.
