The Group

Our research on optoelectronic materials spans the fields of organic, inorganic, and physical chemistry, polymer science, and nanomaterials. Our mission is to provide a collaborative environment where creativity is encouraged, and trainees have the freedom to break new ground. We use a targeted approach to training to help every individual set and achieve goals, whether through academic exchanges, industry partnerships, outreach, and more.
