Electrons, the fundamental charge carriers in solid-state devices, possess three intrinsic properties: mass, charge and spin. Spin is a quantum mechanical property, but can be loosely visualized as a tiny “intrinsic” magnetic dipole moment attached to an electron. In conventional electron...

Silicon nanocrystals (SiNCs) have been suggested as promising candidates for bioimaging because of their abundance, biocompatibility, and stable photoluminescent properties. However, “naked” SiNCs are insoluble in water and very reactive. As a result, NC surface functionalization is necessary to...

We investigate the microscopic nature of charge-carrier conduction in nanoscale semiconducting materials using time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy (TRTS). TRTS uses picosecond pulses of terahertz radiation (0.5-2.5 THz) to explore photoexcited charge-carrier lifetimes and dynamics with...

As awareness of global warming increases and the geopolitically influenced energy supply fluctuates, the global economy is in dire need of a transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources. Although renewable energies are sustainable and have favorable environmental impacts, they suffer...
