We are studying “Ultimatically thin layered materials” such as graphene or MoS2, which are expected to be candidates for future optic or electronic devices. Unusual material properties are emerged due to quantum confinement effects or symmetry breaking effect, in these meterials composed of atomically thin structure. Futhermore, van der Waals stacking of these meterials also provide variety of unique material properties. We would like to fabricate next generation energy conversion devices or information devices using these materials. Novel quantum structure will be fabricated by van der Waals expitaxy and material properties are elucidated using various microscopes.
