2D-FETPD Final Workshop Held in Honour of Prof. Diana Dulić

Posted on by

The concluding 2D-FETPD Workshop was held at the end of the 2D Material Field-Effect Transistors Based Photodetectors (2D-FETPD) project, which was carried out in collaboration with Prof. Diana Dulić of the University of Chile, Santiago, within the Serbian Scientific Cooperation Program with the Diaspora, supported by the Science Fund of the Republic of Serbia. In remembrance of Prof. Diana Dulić, who passed away unexpectedly in January 2026, the workshop was dedicated to her memory.

The first morning session was devoted to the scientific contributions of Prof. Diana Dulić, with her collaborators presenting her major research achievements and their significance for the field.

The second morning session highlighted recent advances in nanoelectronics and two-dimensional materials, together with the scientific achievements of the 2D-FETPD project. Presentations were given by Prof. Diana Dulić’s former students and colleagues. A laboratory tour was also provided to the workshop participants, offering an opportunity to visit the research facilities and learn more about the ongoing activities of the center.

Participants also had the opportunity to enjoy refreshments and continue discussions in an informal and friendly atmosphere in the beautiful garden of the Institute of Physics Belgrade.

A special third afternoon session entitled In Memory of Prof. Diana Dulić was dedicated to her legacy and featured presentations by distinguished researchers whose scientific careers had intersected with hers across diverse fields.

Lectures: Introduction to Nanoelectronics

Posted on by

The lecture entitled “Field-Effect Transistors: Photo-response Characterization of Graphene”, delivered by Diego Sanz Biava from the Department of Physics at the University of Chile, was held on Thursday, May 7, in the Seminar Room of the Center for Solid State Physics and New Materials at the Institute of Physics Belgrade. The seminar was organized in a hybrid format, enabling participation both in person and online for researchers who were unable to attend. Diego Sanz Biava introduced us to the work carried out in collaboration with our project partner, who unexpectedly passed away.

 

The fifth lecture “Two terminal quantum dot devices” was organized on Thursday, December 25 in Seminar Room at Center of Solid State Physics and New Materials at Institute of Physics Belgrade. The seminar was organized in hybrid mode, also for the researchers that can not be present in person. The participants had possibilities to discuss in-person with Prof. Diana Dulić.

 

The fourth lecture in the series, “The Quantum Particle in a Box – Part 2,” was delivered on December 08, 2025, by Diana Dulić as part of the webinar mini-course Lectures in Nanoelectronics. In this lecture, we discussed how electron confinement depends on the dimensionality of a structure. To simplify the analysis, the material is modeled as a “particle in a box.” This approach ignores the atomic structure and assumes the material is perfectly homogeneous. Depending on the number of confined dimensions, we distinguish between three-dimensional systems (bulk materials), two-dimensional systems (quantum wells), one-dimensional systems (quantum wires), and zero-dimensional systems (quantum dots).

 

The third lecture in the series, entitled “The Quantum Particle in a Box – Part 1,” was delivered on December 1, 2025, by Diana Dulić as part of the webinar mini-course Lectures in Nanoelectronics. In this lecture, we studied techniques for calculating the energy levels of electron states.

The second lecture in the series, entitled “The Quantum Particle – Part 2,” was conducted on November 24, 2025, by Diana Dulić as part of the webinar mini-course Lectures in Nanoelectronics. It provided a basic introduction to quantum electronics that will support a better understanding of nanoelectronics.

The initial session of the series, entitled “The Quantum Particle – Part 1,” was conducted on November 17, 2025, by Diana Dulić as part of the webinar mini-course Lectures in Nanoelectronics.

2D-FETPD Workshop

Posted on by

It was a pleasure to host the workshop at the Laboratory for 2D Materials, CSSPNM, Institute of Physics Belgrade, which focused on hands-on testing of recently upgraded equipment for advanced investigation of the electrical properties of 2D material films. Participants had the opportunity to explore the laboratory facilities, observe the equipment in operation, and gain insight into the ongoing research activities and achievements within the project 2D-FETPD, funded by the Science Fund of the Republic of Serbia (Grant No. 9029, YF-SAIGE).

Scheduled visit to Universidad de Chile

Posted on by

It was a great pleasure to visit the Department of Physics, Facultad de Ciencias Físicas y Matemáticas, at the Universidad de Chile in Santiago, Chile. The visit provided an excellent scientific environment for fruitful discussions, collaboration, and the exchange of knowledge in the field of advanced materials research. The visit was carried out by the Serbian team members Jovan Blagojević and Ivana Milošević to the diaspora team, led by Diana Dulić. The visit strengthened scientific collaboration and contributed to effective knowledge exchange between the teams.

The campus of the Universidad de Chile in Santiago is characterized by modern infrastructure and a strong research-oriented environment that fosters interdisciplinary collaboration. The faculty hosts well-equipped laboratories and research centers, providing excellent conditions for high-quality scientific work.

During two-weeks stay of IPB team members at UChile, through a transfer of knowledge, Dr Ivana Milošević and Jovan Blagojević were trained on the system for electrical measurements and photodetection, the associated software (home-build Python-based acquisition program), and the contact fabrication system. Electrical responsivity measurements were performed on undoped WSe2 thin films obtained by the liquid-phase exfoliation (LPE) method at different wavelengths, as well as on films doped with nickel using a single-step method developed at the Institute of Physics in Belgrade.

In addition to the excellent conditions for high-quality scientific work, Santiago is a vibrant and welcoming city that offers a high quality of life. Surrounded by the Andes Mountains, the city provides exceptional natural scenery and easy access to outdoor activities, while its parks and green spaces contribute to a pleasant urban environment.

In between the experimental sessions, there was also time for enjoyment, which provided both relaxation and valuable mental exercise.
