Research Summary
Research is focused on deciphering the physical properties that govern behavior of nanostructured materials and applying the findings to development of practical, active technologies. With focus on organic and inorganic-nanocrystal electronic and optoelectronic structures, to date we demonstrated efficient LEDs, lasers, solar cells, photodetectors, transistors, memory cells, and chemical sensors. In addition to working on small-molecular-weight van-der-Waals-bonded organic thin films, we also examine hybrid organic/inorganic structures, polymer solids, and self-assembled materials. Work tends towards the nano-scale where through development of new patterning and materials growth techniques we aim to reduce the size of active device layers from the present nano-scale thickness of organic thin films to that of single molecules or atomic clusters. The ultimate goal is to utilize the nano-scale functionality of molecules, polymers, and inorganic/organic hybrid assemblies in practical nano-scale devices and both small- and large-area integrated systems.

Future will be Measured in Nanometers
The nano age is upon us. With nanoscale advancements we are reimagining health and life sciences, energy, computing, information technology, manufacturing, and quantum science. Nano is not a specific technology. It does not belong to a particular industry or discipline, it is, rather, a revolutionary way of understanding and working with matter, and it is the key to launching the next innovation age…the nano age.
