My main research interests focus on colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals in a variety of shapes and compositions. Specifically, I am working on how chemistry can contribute to both the understanding of the structures through methods such as Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) … Continue reading →

I work on upconversion nanoparticles for enhanced efficiency solar cells. This effect allows us to ‘upconvert’ light whose wavelength is below the band gap of semiconducting solar cell materials into light that is at or above the band gap, extending … Continue reading →

Research Area: Mesochemistry: thin films of periodic mesoporous organosilica for use as novel low-dielectric-constant materials in semiconductor microprocessors; periodic mesoporous quartz; periodic mesoporous (organosilica) silica-graphene oxide composite materials. Other interests include photonics, bionano interface, energy technology, and cleantech. Favorite Scientist’s … Continue reading →
