Call for Papers

Please contact the symposium organizers with questions.

The study of two-dimensional (2D) materials is a rapidly evolving and interdisciplinary field, with significant potential to revolutionize various existing and emerging technological areas in the future. This symposium will primarily focus on investigating current and future trends in 2D materials research related to photonics, optoelectronics, and quantum optics research, with a particular emphasis on their potential applications in optoelectronics, advanced light-field control, quantum sensing and information processing, and energy. The symposium will cover various topics, such as novel optical properties in 2D materials, 2D heterostructures and twisted 2-D materials, the scalable fabrication of photonic devices using 2D materials, heterogeneous integration of 2D materials with conventional photonic platforms, 2D energy devices, reconfigurable and intelligent 2D optoelectronic devices, nonlinear optics based on 2D materials, 2D polaritons, and 2D materials based quantum optics for quantum sensing, quantum transduction, and quantum information processing. Experts from multiple fields such as materials science, physics, chemistry, and device engineering will be invited to present their research, facilitating discussions on understanding new optical properties and improving the development of these materials for practical applications.

Topics will include:

• Heterogeneous integration of 2D materials with conventional photonic platforms
• 2D materials devices for optoelectronics, sensors and energy applications
• Scalable 2-D photonic device fabrication and applications
• Novel optical and optoelectronic properties in 2D materials
