Organic and Nanostructured Electronics Laboratory

 

We are large-area nanotechnologists developing the next generation of optoelectronic devices and active surfaces. Our work is guided by physical insights discovered at the nanoscale, and taps the unique properties of molecules, polymers, colloidal quantum dots, and hybrid nanomaterials to form active structures — from solar cells to LEDs to lasers, from molecular switches to chemo-sensors to strongly-coupled excitonic devices — that outperform today's state of the art. 



We dare to glimpse into the polaron and exciton dynamics that govern our quantum world. Starting with a fundamental discovery, we build a new device, then a prototype, and then often launch a new technology. Our alumni have used ONE Lab discoveries to develop companies that employ hundreds and make products used by millions.

Next Generation Optoelectronic Devices

We study the physical and chemical properties of nanostructured thin films and devices. Based on our fundamental findings, we develop the next generation of high-performance optoelectronic and photonic devices, including solar cells, LEDs, lasers, photodetectors, transistors, and chemical sensors.

A nanometer is a mere one billionth of a meter. If you were to travel 50,000 nanometers, you'd only be halfway across the width of a human hair. But researchers have discovered that matter at this scale behaves in revolutionary ways. Twenty-five years of intensive research now gives us the power to reshape our world from the nanoscale up.
