2D Materials for Quantum Technology

Project description

Graphene dimensions for quantum technologies

The production of graphene sheets in 2004 was a feat that was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics in 2010. Graphene application in quantum technologies has been hindered due to issues with material quality. The EU-funded project 2D4QT is investigating the utility of van der Waals heterostructures to store quantum information by sandwiching graphene between hexagonal boron nitride layers.
