Goal of the course
This is a graduate level course designed to present the physics and unique characteristics of two dimensional semiconductors. Material growth, processing of devices and their design logic which differs from their three dimensional counterparts will be presented. The course will focus on describing basic opto-electornic and electronic properties of 2D based devices and their operation. The aim is to set a the foundation in knowledge to further work and study two dimensional semiconductors.
