A webinar organised by INPACE Thematic Working Group on Advanced Computing.

Graphene and other two-dimensional materials (2DM) have garnered significant attention in science and engineering due to their potential applications in electronics, photonics, and sensing. Despite over 15 years of extensive research and proven laboratory-scale performance, industrial adoption of 2DM-based technologies remains limited. The primary reasons include the dominance of mature silicon technology and the current technological challenges associated with 2DMs, such as defect management, dielectric deposition, doping, etching, and electrical contacts.

The integration of 2DMs with silicon CMOS at the back-end-of-line (BEOL) or front-end-of-line (FEOL) presents an opportunity to expand silicon’s capabilities while addressing 2DMs’ maturity issues. This co-integration enables applications beyond traditional silicon, particularly in optoelectronics, sensors, and flexible electronics. Current research highlights projects such as graphene-based biosensors for point-of-care diagnostics, integrated photonics, gas sensors, and advanced flexible transparent electrodes.

International collaborations at the University of Granada are driving innovations in biosensors, gas detection, and photonics. These efforts aim to enable high-performance, cost-effective, and scalable solutions for diverse industries. While challenges remain, the promise of 2DMs in enabling “More-than-Moore” applications underscores their transformative potential in next-generation technologies.

This webinar will be presented by Prof. Francisco Gamiz, a European INPACE expert involved in the working groups on Advanced Computing and Functionalities, who participates in roadmapping activities in this field.
