To fully exploit the potential of quantum materials for applications, we explore various scalable synthesis approaches and strategies to obtain materials of the highest quality. Apart from mechanical exfoliation, we are refining our expertise in Chemical Vapour Deposition (CVD) to grow large TMDC flakes of good quality.

We perform microscopy and Raman spectroscopy for preliminary assessment of flake size and coverage. Our in-house Photoluminescence (PL) facility with linearly or circularly polarized light allows us to identify TMDC-specific band structure fingerprints in a non-invasive manner with minimal damage to the material.
