Design and implementation of a modular communication system for the synthesis of atomically thin nanomaterials

Abstract

High quality atomically thin nanomaterials synthesis by Chemical Vapor Deposition method is a research area in current development. The resulting material depends intimately on the parameters used for the growth, with each material having its own unique process space. In this work, a Modular Communication System has been designed and developed to solve challenges in the synthesis of a wide variety of nanomaterials. Through this modular automation approach, reducing time and cost to optimize material properties, facilitate the data analysis for a more comprehensive understanding of how the process parameters affect the growth, crystallinity and thickness of the synthesized nanomaterials.
