Finding alternative optoelectronic mechanisms that overcome the limitations of conventional semiconductor devices is paramount for detecting and harvesting low-energy photons. A highly promising approach is to drive a current from the…
Multiple exciton generation is a process in which more than one electron hole pair is generated per absorbed photon. It allows us to increase the efficiency of solar energy harvesting. Experimental studies have shown the multiple exciton…
The emergence of high transition temperature (Tc) superconductivity in strongly correlated materials remains a major unsolved problem in physics. High-Tc materials, such as cuprates, are generally complex and not easily tunable, making…
Many of the electronic properties of high-temperature cuprate superconductors (HTSC) are strongly dependent on the number of charge carriers put into the CuO$_2$ planes (doping). Superconductivity appears over a dome-shaped region of the…

Expanded porphyrin-based (Hexaphyrins) sensitizers are promising due to their excellent light harvesting feature in dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC). We calculated the low-lying excitations of expanded porphyrins (EPs) as hexaphyrin and…
Control of the band-edge offsets at heterojunctions between organic semiconductors allows efficient operation of either photovoltaic or light-emitting diodes. We investigate systems where the exciton is marginally stable against charge…
Thermoelectric energy harvesters can have a much higher conversion efficiency by implementing quantum dots/wells between the high temperature region and the low temperature region. However they still suffer a limitation of the maximum…
Strong light-matter interactions in silicon metasurfaces give rise to photothermal nonlinearities. While the effect of this strong coupling on light has been extensively studied, its impact on matter remains largely unexplored. Here, we…
