Crystalline silicon is an extremely versatile semiconductor material used for electronics and photovoltaic devices. An organic conductive glue based on a blend of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) and d-sorbitol ...
The growing interest in RNA biology, along with an expansion in computational capabilities, throughput, and sensitivity has provided researchers new tools to probe RNA. RNA selective 2′-hydroxy acylation analyzed by primer extension (SHAPE) utiliz...
There have been an increasing number of materials developed that show multifunctional chromogenic properties (such as electrochromism, electrofluorochromism, or photochromism), but to date, few materials have shown all three properties. Materials ...
Harvesting the sun’s energy at a high efficiency and low cost is a vital step towards replacing fossil fuels. Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are promising materials that have great potential for solar applications due to their size dependent optical...
Small molecule fluorophores are critical for fluorescence spectroscopy, and enable the measurement of a wide array of biological processes and dynamics. For many biological sensing applications, the overall efficacy of the fluorophore is closely c...
Understanding exciton diffusion is a crucial step in the engineering and fabrication of organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices. We studied a variety of organic dyes in our research lab including various derivatives of carboalkoxyphenylporphyrins in so...
