This research investigates two-dimensional (2D) materials and their van der Waals heterostructures, which are anticipated to exhibit quantum mechanical properties or functions that are distinct from the bulk materials. In particular, we aim to construct novel concepts that involve high energy transduction efficiency in photovoltaic and thermoelectric effects in 2D materials.
