Abstract Scope |
Introducing three-dimensionality to two-dimensional (2D) materials opened new possibilities in materials engineering and novel applications in device design and engineering. Mechanical deformation generates unique three-dimensional (3D) morphologies that modulate surface texture, stretchability, and light-matter interactions. Mechanical deformation induces lattice strain that modulates the electronic properties of the material. In this talk, I will discuss mechanical deformation strategies and optoelectronic applications of deformed 2D materials. The deformation strategies include buckle-delamination of 2D materials and selective-area deformation. The deformed 2D materials-based devices exhibit high stretchability, enhanced plasmonic properties, and photosensitivity. The implications and future directions of manufacturing and materials engineering approaches will be briefly discussed. |
