Since the discovery of graphene, 2D materials have impacted almost all areas of scientific and technological research. The amazing properties of 2D materials such as large surface area, high electronic conduction, efficient charge transfer, high mechanical strength, transparency, and flexibility, among others, have generated a number of exciting applications in electronics, healthcare, sensors, biomedicine and sustainable materials.

In this webinar, presented by Mildred Quintana, we will understand where the properties of 2D materials derive from, we will describe van der Waals interactions, how 2D materials are obtained, as well as some strategies to integrate them into composite materials and new applications.

Finally, we will mention the limitations in 2D materials production and the broad spectrum of exciting prospects around them.

Mildred Quintana is professor at the Faculty of Science and Researcher at the Center for Health Sciences and Biomedicine of the Autonomous University of San Luis Potosi (UASLP), Mexico. She obtained her BSc in chemistry and her PhD in surface science at the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana-Iztapalapa (UAM-I), Mexico. After a postdoc at the University of Trieste, Italy, she joined UASLP in 2011. Mildred is responsible for the High-Resolution Microscopy Facility, the Multifunctional Nanostructures Laboratory and co-ordinator of the institutional PhD in engineering and materials science. Her work has focused on graphene and 2D materials, in particular, application-oriented materials processing. Her scientific work has been awarded with national and international distinctions such as the Research Award of the Mexican Academy of Sciences (2018), the National System of Researchers (SNI 3-CONACyT), the Marcos Moshinsky Chair (IF-Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México), the COMPETE recognition to technological development, innovation and scientific activity, as Chair Congress in the IMRC 2020-2021, the UASLP Award to the best young researcher. He has presented more than 70 international invited lectures.
