Yuta Sawai, Graduate Research Assistant (2D Semiconductor Group / Graduate School of Science, Tokyo Metropolitan University) has been honored with both the "Young Scientist Award" and "Journal of Materials Chemistry A Award" at The 71st Fullerenes-Nanotubes-Graphene General Symposium, held from September 4 to 6, 2026.
The Young Scientist Award is presented to promising young researchers and students (generally under 31 years of age at the time of application) who deliver ourstanding poster presentations.
Yuta Sawai Graduate Research Assistant received these prestigious accolades for his poster presentation titled "Identification and suppression of point defects in monolayer WSe2". His research presentation was highly acclaimed, for itsoriginality and its significant potential to advance high-quality two-dimensional semiconductor materials for future electronic device applications.
The award ceremony is scheduled to take place in March 2027 during the 72nd Fullerenes-Nanotubes-Graphene General Symposium
