High-Quality and Wafer-Scale Controlled Synthesis of Two-Dimensional Materials

This research focuses on the crystalline quality, single-crystal size scaling, and interfacial engineering
of emerging two-dimensional materials, aiming to establish scalable and controllable synthesis frameworks
for high-quality wafer-scale two-dimensional material systems.

1. Crystal Quality and Defect Engineering

• Precise control of defect density and crystalline quality in two-dimensional materials
• Elucidating the effects of defects on electronic and optical properties

2. Large-Area Wafer-Scale Single-Crystal Growth

• Investigating the role of epitaxial substrates in controlling crystallographic phase and orientation uniformity
  of two-dimensional materials
• Achieving controllable synthesis of large-area, wafer-scale single-crystal two-dimensional films

3. Surface and Interface Interactions and Layer-Stacking Control

• Exploring surface and interfacial interactions between two-dimensional materials and substrates,
  as well as interlayer coupling mechanisms
• Enabling precise control of layer thickness and stacking configurations
  in van der Waals two-dimensional material systems
