Description

Last year we published a letter in Nature entitled "Bright triplet excitons in cesium lead halide perovskites" [Nature 553, 189 (2018)]. This paper unravels the mystery behind the unusual brightness of fluorescent perovskite nanocrystals. Using both theory and experiment we discovered that the brightness arises from a unique property of these materials. Previously, the lowest energy exciton in all known semiconductors was a poorly fluorescent state known as the "dark exciton." In perovskite nanocrystals we finally found a system...

Grantor Contact InformationAlexander Efros, Phone: 202.767.2713Grantor Emailalex.l.efros.civ@us.navy.milOther Grantor InformaitonThe NRC Research Associateship Programs (RAP) are prestigious postdoctoral and senior research awards designed to provide promising scientists and engineers with high-quality research opportunities at federal laboratories and affiliated institutions. Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
