About
Mario Lanza is a leading figure in the development of two-dimensional (2D) materials for next-generation electronic and neuromorphic devices. His research focuses on piezo-ferro-opto-electronic semiconductors, memristive systems, and brain-inspired computing, where he explores how 2D materials can emulate multimodal sensory processing. Among his most notable contributions is the proposal of NbOX₂ (X = Cl, Br, I) as a “raising” 2D semiconductor that integrates piezoelectric, ferroelectric, and optoelectronic properties, enabling advanced artificial perception systems that combine visual, tactile, and auditory cues. This work, published in 2025, has already garnered early citations, reflecting its potential to reshape AI hardware. Lanza’s broader impact is underscored by his highly cited papers on resistive switching and memristors, which have collectively amassed thousands of citations, establishing him as a key voice in the field. His achievements include pioneering the use of 2D materials for energy-efficient, multimodal computation—a critical step toward realizing adaptive, human-like AI systems. For students and researchers, Lanza’s work offers a compelling vision of how atomic-scale materials can drive the future of intelligent electronics.
