Unbalanced charge injection is deleterious for the performance of colloidal quantum dot (CQD) light emitting diodes (LEDs) as it deteriorates the quantum efficiency (QE), brightness and operational lifetime. CQD LEDs emitting in the…
Regio-regular poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (rr-P3HT), the work-horse of organic photovoltaics, has been recently exploited in bulk heterojunction (BHJ) configuration with phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) for solution-processed…

Tin telluride (SnTe) is an IV-VI semiconductor with a topological crystalline insulator band structure, high thermoelectric performance, and in-plane ferroelectricity. Despite its many applications, there has been little work focused on…
It is well known that superconductivity in thin films is generally suppressed with decreasing thickness. This suppression is normally governed by either disorder-induced localization of Cooper pairs, weakening of Coulomb screening, or…
Similar to superconducting circuit quantum electrodynamics (cQED), the development of a photonic analog--specifically, photonic circuit cQED--has become a major focus in integrated quantum photonics. Current solid-state cQED devices,…

Single quantum emitters (SQEs) are at the heart of quantum optics and photonic quantum information technologies. To date, all demonstrated solid-state single-photon sources are confined in three-dimensional materials. Here, we report a new…
In this study, we fabricate 5-30-nm-thick films of FeSe/STO using pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The grown films exhibit superconductivity with an onset $T_{\mathrm{c}}$ that is much higher than that of bulk FeSe under ambient pressure. The…
In highly purified host, the coherence of quantum emitters is ultimately limited by hyperfine interactions between the emitter and lattice nuclei possessing non-zero nuclear magnetic moments. This limitation can only be mitigated through…
Material absorption is a key limitation in nanophotonic systems; however, its characterization is often obscured by scattering and diffraction loss. Here we show that nanomechanical frequency spectroscopy can be used to characterize the…
