Optical and electrical properties of low-dimensional crystalline materials

Abstract

Low-dimensional materials have experienced a real revolution in both the technological and research fields in recent decades. Their unique properties have opened up a new frontier in the pursuit of novel technological advancements. By confining matter to reduced dimensions, such as thin layers or even individual atomic planes, low-dimensional materials are able to exhibit remarkable physical, chemical, and electronic properties that differ significantly from their bulk counterparts. This allows for the tailoring and engineering of their properties by simply controlling their geometrical parameters. [Texto extraído del artículo de Jesús Martínez Puras].
