Накратко на български
Двуизмерни материали, като графена и борния нитрид, се синтезират върху метални повърхности за изследване на техните атомни свойства. Това помага за разбирането на химичните връзки и структурите, което отваря възможности за бъдещи технологични приложения.

Beyond Graphene: Fundamental properties of 2D materials at the atomic scale
The project 2DNano aims to synthesize and characterize novel 2D structures on metallic substrates opening ways for the technological exploration of these structures. To this propose the project has been divided in two phases, each of them compromising the following objectives: Phase1.Synthesis of novel 2D structures on metals Obj 1.Search of simple and efficient growth methods of 2D layers on noble metal substrates. Obj 2.Design and investigation of heterostructures combining a semimetal (graphene), a insulator (h-BN) and a semiconductor (SiC). Phase2.Functionalization of 2D sheets by reactive sites enabling an anchoring of adsorbates Obj 3.Study of the defects which constitute highly reactive sites for covalent functionalization of the 2D structures. Obj 4.Chemical functionalization of the 2D layer by metal atoms and macrocyclic systems. The most important conclusions are: -We provided a complete, quantitative structure determination of the h-BN and graphene layers on Cu(111) and Ag(111) by AFM, STM and complementary techniques. -We achieved an in-situ covalent dehydrogenative coupling mechanism yielding –for the first time– porphines fused to graphene edges. -We fabricated a layered architecture through the intercalation of functional molecules between the Cu(111) and the h-BN sheet.

Цел на проекта
The aim of the 2DNano project is to further the development of a high potential European researcher, Dr. Garnica, in the field of nanotechnology through an ambitious research programme that straddles the interface of physics, chemistry and engineering. The project is taking place for two years at the Chair E20 at Technische Universität München, a leading institution for nanoscience and nanotechnology. The main goal of the proposal is the synthesis and atomic level understanding of novel two-dimensional (2D) structures on metallic substrates.The success of graphene has spurred tremendous expectations and research efforts in the development of novel 2D materials with outstanding structural and electronic properties. In graphene, the superlative electronic properties are a consequence of its characteristic band structure, linear near the Fermi level, which convert it in a semimetal. Nevertheless, a large variety of electronic properties, including band gaps and electron mobilities, can be found in the direct analogues of graphene such as the insulator hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) and the theoretically predicted semiconductor silicon carbide (SiC) honeycomb sheets. With the 2DNano project, we will dedicate considerable efforts in designing new synthetic methods for the production of these 2D materials on metallic substrates, in particular SiC on a silver substrate. The fully characterization of these layers at atomic scale by complementary spectroscopy and microscopy techniques will provide us a wealth of information on their chemical, electronic and geometric structure. This crucial information will be important for the further functionalization of such heterostructures with the final objective of adding new functionalities.
