What We Do
We’re unmasking the coherent quantum mechanical flow of electronic excited states and charges—along with their coherent spin-spin interactions—in precisely tailored nanostructures and molecules.
Long term, our work will exploit coherence to harvest and transmit energy and information via novel quantum mechanical mechanisms and develop new ways for doing chemistry.
What We Study
Our research covers two main themes within quantum coherence.
Molecules and Chromophore Aggregate Systems
We explore how symmetry breaking in molecules impacts spin coherence.
Nanoscale
We examine the lossless flow of energy through nanostructures.
Work With Us
Our goal is to provide world-class, cutting-edge training to postdocs and graduates students through innovative research, in-depth mentoring, and specialized training.
