This $1,800,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Integrative Activities program (CFDA 47.083) will fund a collaborative research project between the University of Kansas and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. The project aims to harness the unique properties of artificial magnetic semiconductors in two-dimensional (2D) materials to enable the development of next-generation electronic devices and components, including energy-efficient memory and logic devices. The research team will stack and twist atomically thin 2D layers to create artificial structures not found in nature, and study their magnetic and electronic behavior to inform the design of advanced devices. Key outcomes will include educating future materials scientists, building a quantum-ready workforce, and raising public awareness through education and outreach efforts. The collaboration leverages complementary expertise in synthesis, nanofabrication, characterization, sensing, and theory across the two universities.
