Description:: Thermoelectric materials are of particular interest in a variety of fields because of their ability to directly convert heat to electricity (and vice versa), however, they struggle to gain widespread adoption because of their low efficiency. A common strategy in the field of thermoelectricity is to introduce material defects into...

Description:: The III-Nitride material system has already proven to be commercially viable for blue light emitting diodes (LEDs), blue laser diodes (LDs), and near UV photodetectors. Continued interest in this field has driven the desire for even lower emission and detection cut-off wavelengths into the solar-blind / deep UV portion of...

Description:: Small molecule organic materials based on perylene- and naphthalene- diimide are synthesized and characterized for use as semiconductor thin films in organic field-effect transistors. The orbital energetics of the materials are investigated via electrochemical, spectroscopic, and computational techniques. The thin film solids are characterized by x-ray diffraction techniques and surface...
