New Paper: Data-Driven Discovery for Robust Optimization of Semiconductor Nanowire Lasers

Group postdoc Stephen Church has had a major paper accepted in "Lasers & Photonics Review". The work culminates two years of collaborative work with a number of partners around the world: - Jena (Germany), - Australian National University, - Zhejiang University (China), - University College London, - University of Cambridge, -

New Paper: Optical Characterization of Size- and Substrate-Dependent Performance of Ultraviolet Hybrid Plasmonic Nanowire Lasers

We have a new paper as a result of a collaboration between Freidrich-Schiller University Jena, the University of Manchester, the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology and the National Yang-Ming Chiao Tung University. Collaborator Francesco Vitale (Jena) led this study to understand how substrate interactions can modify photonic to plasmonic nanolasing

New Publication: Disentangling the impact of point defect density and carrier localization

Green LEDs remain low efficiency compared with their blue counterparts, but are required for future display technology. Power-dependent measurements show that current- rather than defect-management is crucial to improving efficiency.

New Publication: Heterometallic Lanthanide Complexes with Site-Specific Binding that Enable Simultaneous Visible and NIR-emission

Lanthanide elements have distinctive and long-lived light emission. Holding multiple lanthanides close together provides a route to creating new biological imaging molecules.

New Publication: Bottom-up, chip-scale engineering of low threshold, multi- quantum well microring lasers

Computation with light instead of electricity will increase speed and energy efficiency. We show a route to growing lasers directly onto chips with high repeatability to enable this technology.

New Publication: Sub-Picosecond Carrier Dynamics Explored using Automated High-Throughput Studies of Doping Inhomogeneity within a Bayesian Framework

Nano-materials are hard to precisely manufacture. By measuring >10k, we use their disorder to understand their performance in a paper in Small.

New Publication: Improving Quantum Well Tube Homogeneity Using Strained Nanowire Heterostructures

Group PhD student Nikesh Patel has just had his first paper accepted in ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces. His study uses a new methodology to understand how quantum "shells" - less than 10nm thick - vary both within single nanowires, and between them. By using automated high-throughput approaches on over
