Selenide-based 2D nanomaterials by Atomic Layer Deposition with exciting properties

Provider: Grantová agentura ČR
Programme: Standardní projekty
Implementation period: 01.01.18 - 31.12.20
Workplace: Fakulta chemicko-technologická - Oddělení organických materiálů
Investigator: Bureš Filip
Team member: Macák Jan | Tydlitát Jiří | Klikar Milan | Zazpe Raul | Krbal Miloš
Description:
The project focuses on design and synthesis of novel organic selenium derivatives and their subsequent application as Se-precursors suitable for 2D transition-metal dichalcogenides by atomic layer deposition (ALD). The proposed strategy involves four logically ordered work packages that include design, synthesis, purification and fundamental characterization of new volatile selenium derivatives, their utilization as Se-precursors for ALD, optimization of the ALD process towards layers of 2D transition-metal dichalcogenides, their characterization and further assessment of their application potential. The main motivation for the project is missing portfolio of selenium or tellurium derivatives suitable for ALD technique as well as application of the ALD technique for preparing MoSe2 and related nanomaterials. The project is highly multidisciplinary on the forefront of organic, inorganic and materials chemistry and, therefore, also highly collaborative and will involve close collaboration of two working groups of the applicants, both with unique know-how in the given area.
