Please consider attending the following: MATERIALS ENGINEERING SEMINAR "Nanocomposite Films on Flexible Substrates for Conductometric Sensing of Gas Analytes." By Aiganym Yermembetova Purdue MSE Ph.D. Preliminary Exam Advisors: Professor Alexander Wei and Professor David F. Bahr ABSTRACT In recent years a lot of attention has been invested on 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC), their synthesis, structural, electrical and optical properties. Due to the interesting chemical, electrical properties, such as tunable bandgap, TMDCs have been considered as promising candidates for the manufacturing of low-cost devices on flexible substrates. The following work describes progress toward conductometric sensors based on exfoliated MoS2 for the detection of specific volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
