This project focused on investigating the prospects of two-dimensional (2D) materials, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and graphene, for developing nanostructures that are potentially useful for quantum science. These materials class exhibit a range of fascinating electronic and optical properties and, due to their sub-nanometer thickness, are particularly well suited for confining electronic quantum states in atomic-size structures. The project involved developing first-principles calculations that can predict coherent lifetimes of defects; theoretical schemes for identifying new platforms suitable for studying the dynamics of driven quantum systems; and optical and electronic spectroscopy characterization of novel defects and heterostructures with the aim of creating the next generation of materials for quantum science. This report provides a brief background into the project, highlights some of the major achievements accomplished within the projects and lists the supported publications.
