Really often, brand new two-dimensional materials (2DMs) show up in the nanotechnology scenario, while accompanied with huge expectations in terms of possible exploitation in electronic applications. However, due to the novelty, technology presents many issues, so that the real performance to be expected in devices using these new materials are mostly obscure. From this point of view, simulations are the only available tool available at researchers’ hands and able to assess the ultimate performance.

In this talk, I will provide, from an engineering point of view, a perspective of 2DMs exploited in electronic devices, on a wide range of applications (from digital, to analog and opto), while considering new class of 2DMs as transition monochalcogenides or topological insulators.

This will be done, while considering Industry requirements for next-generation devices.
