Photonic Particles (IRG II)

Research Fields: | Nano Focused | Nanostructures / Nanoparticles | Semiconductors / Photonics / Organic Electronics | Synthesis / Processing |

Photonic Building Blocks from Multiscale Materials
Our group is working to understand and control the optical properties of a novel class of radiative nanoparticles—fluorescent core-shell silica nanoparticles (C dots)—that combine the tunability of organic dyes with the durability of inorganic materials to achieve brightness levels comparable to quantum dots. The fundamental correlation between structure and photonic […]
