Professor Irina Grigorieva at has been awarded the .

This award recognises Professor Grigorieva’s distinguished and distinctive contributions to research on physics of two-dimensional materials and nanotechnology, including magnetism, superconductivity and electron transport in graphene, related 2D crystals and their heterostructures.

To coincide with this announcement Professor Grigorieva has also been elected as a Fellow of the Institute in recognition of her personal contribution to the advancement of physics as a discipline and a profession. Irina is and Related Nanomaterials and previously of the Northâ€گWest Nanoscience Doctoral Training Centre.

, the world’s first 2D material, has opened the doors for the exploration of others, each with a range of different properties

 

I am greatly honoured to receive this prestigious IOP award. The last 15 years of working on graphene and 2D materials have been exceptionally exciting and I feel privileged to belong to the great and vibrant community of researchers working in this field, at ٍٍٍ½خرتسئµ and beyond.
Professor Irina Grigorieva

When graphene and other 2D or nanoscale materials are combined, new ‘designer’ materials are created which can be fine-tuned with tailored properties and exploited in ways that were previously inaccessible but have now become a reality.

Professor Grigorieva who is based in the  at the University said: ‘I am greatly honoured to receive this prestigious IOP award. The last 15 years of working on graphene and 2D materials have been exceptionally exciting and I feel privileged to belong to the great and vibrant community of researchers working in this field, at ٍٍٍ½خرتسئµ and beyond.’

The 2019 awards will be presented at the annual IOP Awards Dinner on 19 November 2019 at the Royal Lancaster London Hotel.
