FUNLAYERS

Layered materials are solids consisting of multiple layers of atoms; in such solids, two-dimensional sheets are strongly bonded, but only weakly bonded to adjacent layers. Industry has shown interest in such materials for creating high-performance semiconductors, conductors, superconductors, ferromagnets and antiferromagnets for various applications. The EU-funded FUNLAYERS project will apply layered materials in energy storage and spintronics. The project aims to strengthen the research capacity of the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory in Braga, Portugal. To this end, it will organise training sessions, knowledge-sharing activities and exchange of good practices, in addition to offering access to advanced facilities.
