Exploring the Future of Electronics with 2D MaterialsIn this episode of Engineering Innovations, host Kristin Malavenda welcomes Dr. Joerg Appenzeller, the Barry M. and Patricia L. Epstein Professor at Purdue University's Elmore Family School of Electrical and Computer Engineering. Dr. Zeller shares his journey from studying physics in Germany to joining Purdue, delving into his fascinating research on two-dimensional (2D) materials. These materials, which are just one atom thick, have potential applications in transistors, memory, and interconnects, promising to revolutionize electronics. Dr. Zeller explains the unique properties of 2D materials, their advantages over traditional materials like silicon, and their expected adoption timeline. Additionally, he discusses the importance of interdisciplinary work, students' involvement in innovative research, and the hands-on training provided at Purdue. Tune in to learn how these groundbreaking materials could shape the future of technology.Hosted and produced by Kristin Malavenda 00:00 Introduction to Engineering Innovations Podcast01:01 Meet Dr. Yorg Zeller: From Germany to Purdue05:16 Understanding 2D Materials07:37 Graphene and Its Impact09:21 Applications of 2D Materials in Electronics12:35 Challenges and Future of 2D Materials20:39 Student Involvement and Research30:48 Career Paths and Personal Insights36:42 Reflecting on Teaching and Student Engagement38:07 Introduction to Engineering Innovations Podcast01:01 Journey to Purdue and Research in 2D Materials05:16 Understanding 2D Materials and Their Applications09:21 Challenges and Future of 2D Materials20:39 Student Involvement and Research Impact30:48 Career Paths and Personal Insights35:01 Conclusion and Podcast Wrap-Up
