Abstract

Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

PI Contribution Within an extensive collaboration between the group at SOTON an my group at Imperial (jointly funded through the EPSRC grant), we are developing heterostructures based on CVD graphene and electrodeposited layers of TMDC and develop and test novel electronic device such as transistors, barristors, and tunnelling devices. Imperial's main contributions: CVD graphene deposition and transfer, transfer of TMDC flakes, device design, electrical characterization and modelling, biosensor applications.
Collaborator Contribution Within an extensive collaboration between the group at SOTON an my group at Imperial (jointly funded through the EPSRC grant), we are developing heterostructures based on CVD graphene and electrodeposited layers of TMDC and develop and test novel electronic device such as transistors, barristors, and tunnelling devices. SOTON's main contributions: precursor development and optimization of electrodeposition processes of various TMDC materials, Raman and TEM investigation (the latter with a partner at University of Warwick), transistor fabrication and charactrization.
