The First INFRACHIP school – 2D Materials for Flexible Energy Harvesting and Storage Devices

INFRACHIP is organizing its first school during October and February”2D Materials for Flexible Energy Harvesting and Storage Devices”!

It will combine online learning with hands on practice at the Hellenic Mediterranean University, in Greece.

We invite interested participants (PhD and Master students, Researchers, Engineers…) to apply for this opportunity!

“2D Materials for Flexible Energy Harvesting and Storage Devices” focuses on utilizing advanced 2D materials like graphene and dichalcogenides to develop innovative, flexible energy solutions. This includes processing these materials for additive manufacturing, creating printable and sprayable formulations, and optimizing their properties through functionalization and doping. The field also explores organic and perovskite solar cells, emphasizing improved performance and stability. Additionally, it involves the industrialization of printing processes for photovoltaic modules and the development of printed and flexible electronics for various applications, including smart wearables and IoT. These efforts aim to enhance device performance and create efficient, flexible energy harvesting and storage solutions.”


October 14th-18th: Online learning

The first part of the school will take place online from October 14th to 18th, as webinars. It will tackle the topic of Self powered IoT applications enabled by 2D materials.

 

February 24-28th : Hands-on learning

The second part of the INFRACHIP School will take place in person, at the Hellenic Mediterranean University in Heraklion, Greece.

Several modules are planned:

  • 2D materials based ink formulation and characterization
  • 2D material enabled energy harvesters and storage units fabrication
  • Device demonstrations characterization

 

Applications are open here.

Applicants are responsible for their own travel and accommodation expenses. In case of EU applications, applicants should seek opportunities through EU mobility programs such as Erasmus. The same can be the case for international applications.
