    Summary 

    Leakage current in electronic components is one of the limiting factors for the performance of conventional computers which use charges and currents as physical information carriers. Spintronics offers an alternative by using electron spin for information transfer, processing and storage, enabling the design of non-volatile computer memory and more energy-efficient electronic devices. In this project, we develop a new class of low-dimensional quantum materials for spintronics applications, which are based on colloidal metal halide perovskite semiconductor nanostructures. We explore the control of spin polarization in these systems based on magnetic exchange interactions between dopant centers and the nanocrystal charge carriers. A particular focus is on tuning spin exchange interactions by the selection of dopants and the ability to compositionally modulate nanocrystal band structure. Beyond spintronics, our results on spin interactions in metal halide perovskite nanostructures could open a new field of material research and ultimately result in new approaches to quantum information processing.

    Line-Scanning optical coherence tomography system for in-vivo, non-invasive imaging of the cellular structure and blood perfusion of biological tissue

    Summary  Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an optical imaging method that allows for in-vivo, non-invasive imaging of the structure and vasculature of biological tissue. Commercially available, clinical OCT systems utilize point-scanning method to acquire volumetric images over a large surface with typical frame rates of ~ 30 frames/ second. Since living biological tissue is constantly […]

    Ultrafast Dynamical Studies of Valley-Based Qubits

    Summary   As monolayers, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) – such as tungsten diselenide (WSe2) – become direct-bandgap semiconductors capable of emitting light. Compared to conventional direct-bandgap semiconductors, such as III-V semiconductors like GaAs, excitons (quasiparticles made of an electron hole bound with an electron) and single-layer TMDCs (SL-TMDCs) have much stronger binding energy. Excitons and […]
