  overall_research_project_description: |
    Our research group seeks to investigate the optoelectronic properties and energy transfer behavior of semiconductor materials. We are specifically interested in semiconductor nanocrystals for use as sensitizers for photon upconversion when paired with organic dyes. This goal of this project is to achieve nanocrystal-sensitized photon upconversion in a solid-state thin film rather than the established solution-based approach.
    Student(s) will work closely with a faculty member and graduate student researcher to gain experience in solution-based nanocrystal synthesis, thin film deposition techniques, optical spectroscopy, data processing, and scientific presentation.
