Highlights with ‘optoelectronics’

Automated redox potentials assessment of dyes for photelectrochemical cells

Dye-sensitized photoelectrochemical cells (DS-PEC) are promising systems for sustainable fuel production. A great advantage for their design is the modularity of these systems. In particular, it is of interest to tune the dye’s optical and...

Optical and photoluminescence properties of gold and silver nanoclusters

Silver and gold nanoclusters (NCs) have proven to be efficient and stable, with optical and emissive properties that can be tuned by changing the cluster’s geometric and electronic parameters. Due to the dependence of size,...

Excitons with a twist: 2D optoelectronics

A recent experimental and theoretical study uncovers the effect of twisting layers in van der Waals heterostructures. Exciton transport in heterobilayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs, MXenes) is found to be modulated by the twist...

2Exciting: ITN on 2D optoelectronics

2Exciting is a new MSCA-ITN-ETN European Training Network on two-dimensional semiconductors and their optoelectronic properties – it has just been selected for funding by the EU. The consortium includes universities and small companies across 10...

Microstructure of doped lead halide perovskites from solid-state NMR

Multi-component lead halide perovskites have recently emerged as new promising materials for solar cells and light emitting devices. Essential to their remarkable performance is the notion of doping with inorganic and organic cations such as...
