We shall present an overview of the modelling of these materials and their interaction with substrates using accurate electronic-structure calculations, usually the density functional theory. We demonstrate the power of these methods, with examples from hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), silicene, germanene, phosphorene, boronene, among others. We also discuss the challenges remaining, such as an accurate and reliable description of the van der Waals interactions. We make a connection to experiments wherever possible, sometimes being in a position to judge the reliability of different probing methods.<\/p>\n<h3>Biography<\/h3>\n<p>Dr. Ari Paavo SEITSONEN is working on the computational modelling of material, in particular surface, interface and liquid systems. He applies density functional theory-based approaches to study dynamics, electronic and geometry structure of substances such as water, self-assembled and atomically thin layers on metallic substrates. He did his PhD while staying at the Fritz-Haber Institute in Berlin, and was a post-doctoral fellow in Rome, Bavaria, Stuttgart and Ticino with Michele Parrinello, and University of Zurich with J\u00fcrg Hutter until beginning at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) in 2005 at the Universit\u00e9 Pierre et Marie Curie. From 2014 he is at the Ecole Normale Sup\u00e9rieure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Dr. Ari Paavo Seitsonen, Research Engineer at \u00c9cole Normale Sup\u00e9rieure, Paris, France.
