Project C03 explores halide–carbon interactions to better understand the intercalation process in 2D materials such as graphite, few-layer graphene, and carbon nanotubes. It investigates how charge transfer and confinement affect the structure and reactivity of intercalated species. Using in situ synthesis of polyhalide compounds, the project monitors these changes in real time with Raman scattering techniques.

Experimental methods: intercalation, Raman scattering
