Recent News
March 2025: Our new collaborative paper investigating strong electronic coupling between silicon quantum dots and molecular ligands was just accepted in Nano Letters! This paper represents a collaborative effort with the with the Tang Group at Utah, the Eaves Group at CU Boulder, and the Manoglini and Su Groups at UC Riverside. Congratulations to Honghao for his work on the manuscript!
January 2025: Congratulations to Celena! Her collaborative paper with the Miyamae Group at Chiba University just appeared in J. Chem. Phys. In this work, Celena uses electronic sum frequency generation to examine buried interfaces within indigo OFETs. November 2024: Congratulations to Cam who has successfully defended her thesis! Cam's thesis work examined triplet energy transport in singlet fission materials and charge and energy transfer within plasmonic systems. Your presence here at UT will be missed, but we wish you nothing but the best as you make the next step in your career! October 2024: Congratulations to Tanner and Cam! Their new paper describing how singlet fission impacts energy transport in perylenediimide crystals was just accepted by JACS! This paper represents a collaboration between our group and that of the Rose Group at UT and the Eaves Group at CU Boulder! August 2024: A new editorial by Lea Nienhaus just appeared online in Matter that features our recent work examining how singlet fission spatially varies across rubrene crystals. You can check out the editorial here! July 2024: Congratulations to Brittany as she successfully defended her thesis examining chemical functionalization of silicon surfaces for improved solar energy production and fuels generation. Brittany is also a member of the Rose Group and has done some fantastic electrochemistry, synthesis, and spectroscopy during her PhD! June 2024: Congratulations to Kelly and Tanner! Their new paper describing wide field transient absorption microscopy was just accepted for publication by J. Phys. Chem. C! This paper was made possible by the Center for Adopting Flaws as Features, a NSF CCI. |
