. .

Résumé :
An introduction to the electrical and transport properties of graphene and other two-dimensional nanomaterials.

Biographie:
Luis E. F. Foa Torres is a condensed matter physicist and Associate Professor of Physics at the University of Chile. Previous positions include Professor and CONICET Independent Research Scientist in Argentina, and fellow of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation in Dresden, Germany. His research is focused on quantum transport, two-dimensional materials (e.g. graphene), topological insulators and the physics of driven systems. He was awarded the ICTP Prize in 2018.
