Episode 17: Hybrid material replaces doping in bandgap engineeringUpdate: 2025-08-19
Description
In this podcast episode, MRS Bulletin’s Laura Leay interviews Sathvik Iyengar, a PhD candidate at Rice University, about the development of a hybrid material called “glaphene.” A hybrid of graphene and two-dimensional (2D) silica glass, glaphene is a semiconductor with a bandgap of ~4 eV. More importantly, Iyengar and colleagues introduce a new method of bandgap engineering using hybrid materials instead of doping, which opens new possibilities for producing electronic components. This work was published in a recent issue of Advanced Materials.
