Since the seminal report about the first Candela-class-brightness InGaN blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) by Shuji Nakamura et al. in 1994, III-nitride semiconductors have been one of the most important platforms for optoelectronic devices. The achieve ...
The efficiency and peculiarities of processes such as surface adsorption or electron-to-photon energy conversion in organic and inorganic structures are determined by the dynamics at the scale of individual molecules, atoms and charges. The timescales of s ...
The strength of the electron-hole interaction in bulk semiconductors is not only determined by the dielectric environment, but also depends on the presence of other quasiparticles - free charge carriers or phonons - that populate the system. In the former ...
Fluorescence-based organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) using thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) have increasingly attracted attention in research and industry. One method to implement TADF is based on an emitter layer composed of an exciplex ...
The photophysics of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is intensively studied due to their potential application in light harvesting and optoelectronics. Excited states of SWCNTs form strongly bound electron-hole pairs, excitons, of which only singlet e ...
Only recently organic light-emitting diode (OLED) technology has successfully managed the transition from research labs into the consumer market, taking a 60% share of the global mobile display market in 2018. The latest discovery of thermally activated de ...
We introduce a novel architecture for parallel frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) laser ranging (LiDAR). Using dual soliton microcombs, we demonstrate a parallel distance measurement with 24 channels requiring only a single FMCW pump laser and cohe ...
Relatively weak red photoluminescence of carbon dots (CDots) is a major challenge on the way to their successful implementation in biological and optoelectronic devices. We present a theoretical analysis of the interaction among the surface emission center ...
Understanding and controlling the electronic structure of thin layers of quantum materials is a crucial first step towards designing heterostructures where new phases and phenomena, including the metal-insulator transition (MIT), emerge. Here, we demonstra ...
The development of near-infrared (NIR) photodetection technologies is driven by emerging applications such as medical imaging or optical sensors for electronic displays and machine vision. An all-organic upconverter (OUD) is a device that converts incident ...
