2026 International Symposium on Epi-Graphene
Scope
2026 International Symposium on Epi-Graphene 

Scope of the symosium:

The potential of graphene on silicon carbide, which is nowadays also referred to as "epi-graphene", has been shown many years  ago by the pioneering work of Walt de Herr and Claire Berger. Intensive reasearch by a well-connected world-wide research network  has led to progressing knowledge about the fascination properties of epigraphene and its possible applications. Throughout the years, a series of symposia was devoted to the science and technology of epitaxial graphene. Among them were

The series was interupted by the COVID19 pandemic, which has unfortunately led to a decline of scientific discussion and collaboration. Nevertheless, scientific progress was made through recent years, leading to new discoveries and concepts, thus manifesting epitaxial graphene further in the world of 2D materials while at the same time establishing connections to other materials platforms such as, for example,  2D superconductors or topological insulators. ISEG2026 will be a chance to reestablish old intercations and to tie new bonds to newcomers in the field as well as to colleagues working in related areas of 2D materials. The symposium will provide an ideal platform for scientists in the field to present and discuss their recent work and for setting up future collaborations.
