"In-person" group social
Most of the group finally met in-person after 13 months of remote working, taking advantage of the sun and the newly reopened Krobar! A perfect time for a belated in-person welcome to Stephen Church (front right) and Nikesh Patel (front left).
Au Revoir to Stefan Skalsky
Congratulations and an “au revoir” to group PhD student Stefan Skalsky, who has accepted a postdoctoral position at the Lancaster University in the group of Qiandong Zhuang. He will work on mid-infared optoelectronics for sensing applications.
Welcome to Nikesh!
The group welcomes Nikesh Patel as a new EPSRC-funded PhD student working on the Big-data for Nano-Electronics project. Nikesh joins us from an MPhysChem at the University of Edinburgh, and will focus on high-throughput spectroscopy of low-dimensionality nanomaterials.
Learning through Research Internship available
A student experience intership is available in the group for a period of 8 weeks over summer 2021. This paid position is available to any Manchester undergraduate student who is not currently in their final year. They are designed to provide experience of academic research to undergraduates who are considering
Welcoming back returning MPhys students
The group welcomes back our returning MPhys students who will continue on their projects this semester. This includes:
Big-data for nano-electronics – development of machine-learning tools for analysis of imaging and spectroscopic data for nanotechnology
Rafe Whitehead, Thomas Blackmore, Jonathan Ryding
Earth’s-field NMR – design and construction of an NMR system
New Review : Measuring, controlling and exploiting heterogeneity in optoelectronic nanowires
Group PhD students Ruqaiya Al-Abri and Hoyeon Choi have written an invited review article for JPhys Photonics, published today.
Lead author Ruqaiya Al-Abri describes this work:
Among the one-dimensional structures, semiconductor nanowires have attracted great attention; from the growth process to the production of functional devices they have been widely
PSI Seminar: Prof Dragomir Neshev on night-vision meta-materials
The OMS group invited Professor Dragomir Neshev, director of the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Tranformative Metal-Optical Systems to gave the Photon Science Institute Seminar today. He spoke about the new institute and a specific example of non-linear optical metamaterials for night-vision.
New Paper : Facet-Related Non-uniform Photoluminescence in Passivated GaAs Nanowires
Our collaborative work on spatially inhomogeneous recombination in semiconductor nanowires has been published in a special issue of Frontiers in Chemistry. The work, led by Dr. Nian (Jenny) Jiang at the University of Cambridge reports the spatially varying emission intensity from passivated nanowires. By comparing the bulk emission to buried
Group Seminar: Aruni Fonseka, Warwick Electron Microscopy
Dr Aruni Foseka of the Warwick Electron Microscopy Centre gave a seminar to the group and colleagues at the Photon Science Institute. Her talk covered electron microscopy techniques for nanomaterial characterisation, including dark-field and spectroscopic approaches.
