Our group envisioning the optical and electronic properties of emerging semiconductors for low-cost, transformative electronics and renewable energy applications.
We discover new semiconductor materials for next-generation optoelectronic applications.
Ultrafast Spectroscopy
We use optical spectroscopy to understand material and device photophysics on a range of length and time scales.
Optoelectronic Devices
Our developed devices and in-situ characterization approaches provides a unique platform for developing efficient electronic devices.
