Spintronics and Valleytronics of Two-Dimensional Materials

Dates: May 20 - 24, 2019

Location: PCS IBS, Daejeon, South Korea

Scientific coordinators:
Sven Höfling (University of Würzburg, Germany & University of St Andrews, UK)
Mikhail Gsslazov (Ioffe Institute, RAS, Russia)
Ivan Savenko (PCS IBS, Korea)

Organizers:
Dominika Konikowska (coordinator, PCS IBS)

Overview:
The main aim of the event is to discuss the frontiers of two-dimensional materials and exciton-polariton research with the world-leading experts, as well as develop and strengthen collaboration between the theoretical and experimental research groups. The particular emphasis will be on the rapidly developing field of spin-valley phenomena in two-dimensional materials coupled with light and forming polariton condensates. We will invite world-leading experts to address all the key trends in the field and discuss possible collaborative projects.

Topics include:
- Two-dimensional semiconductors
- Exciton-polaritons in artificial lattices
- Photon-mediated superconductivity
- Hybrid Bose-Fermi systems
