SUMMARY:Some exotic properties of 2D quantum materials revealed by quantum mechanical simulations
DESCRIPTION:Biplab Sanyal\nUppsala University \n\nTwo-dimensional (2D) materials have gained a dominating position in the world of quantum materials due to their high potential for advanced applications in flexible electronics\, optoelectronics\, energy storage\, catalysis\, spintronics\, etc. An enormous playground exists in developing 2D van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures by combining a variety of 2D materials for realising extraordinary properties. In this talk\, I will present some interesting properties of 2D materials regarding their peculiar structural\, electronic and magnetic properties giving rise to ultralow thermal conductivity\, negative Poisson ratio and giant momentum-dependent spin splitting revealed by sophisticated quantum mechanical simulations. A particular focus will be given to 2D magnetic materials and their vdW heterostructures highlighting the importance of structural inhomogeneities\, electron correlation\, spin-orbit coupling and spin transport properties. \n  \nAbout speaker\nBiplab Sanyal is an Associate Professor at the Department of Physics and Astronomy of Uppsala University\, Sweden. He is also the head of the Materials theory division since 2019. After completing Ph.D. studies in S.N. Bose National Center\, India in 1999\, he joined Brock University\, Canada as a post-doctoral fellow followed by another postdoctoral fellowship at Uppsala University from 2000-2003. Then he became an Assistant Professor in 2003 and an Associate Professor in 2011. He has supervised 18 Ph.D. students and 8 postdoctoral fellows. His research interests lie in 2D materials\, magnetism\, electron correlation\, electronic and spin transport\, Monte-Carlo simulations\, lattice and magnetization dynamics\, biomolecules and materials with structural and chemical disorder. He has published 320+ papers including Nature Materials\, Nature Communications\, Reviews of Modern Physics and Phys. Rev. Lett. with 12300+ citations\, h-index 55\, i10-index 217 (ref.: Google Scholar)\, 11 book chapters\, 2 volume editors (Elsevier\, Springer). \n \n
