Scientific project:
The main goal of the internship is to experimentally investigate the electric (s), thermoelectric (S) and thermal properties (k) of devices based on nanostructured graphene. Nanostructuring will be engineered by a network of holes, with 300-400nm diameter and 50-150nm edge width, aiming to reduce the phonon mean free path without affecting significantly the electron mean free path. The students will be involved in sample fabrication in clean room (dry transfer of the 2D material, e-beam lithography, etching, metal deposition …), electrical measurements (s, S) and modulated thermoreflectance measurements (k) (coll. INSP – Paris). The team has recently demonstrated the ability of achieving a complete thermoelectrical characterization of 2D materials-based devices4,5 and has already achieved promising preliminary results (see Fig.). The team’s expertise in the investigation of charge and spin transport in 2D materials and in clean room micro and nano fabrication techniques will be exploited in the project.
