Auger recombination is an important mechanism that can limit the performance of solar cells.
Graduate student Wade Luhman has demonstrated a route to enhance the short exciton diffusion length (LD) of organic semiconductors by combining fluorescent and phosphorescent materials into a single electron donating thin film.
Highly spin-polarized magnets have the potential to radically improve the performance of many spintronic devices.
Using small-angle neutron scattering, we investigated the mechanism of molecular exchange in spherical micelles formed by diblock copolymers in an organic solvent.
Research funded in part by the MIT MRSEC has led to a discovery of one-way photonic behavior. A team made up of MIT physicists Zheng Wang, research scientist in MIT's Research Laboratory
