ERI: Understanding and Harnessing Exciton Polaritons for High-Performance 2D Heterostructu — NSF Award to South Dakota School of M
Nontechnical description: This project will study a new approach to improving the light-detecting performance of optoelectronic devices by using special hybrid light-matter waves called exciton-polaritons. These waves can carry optical energy across ultrathin materials over much longer distances than ordinary excitatio

| Abstract | Nontechnical description: This project will study a new approach to improving the light-detecting performance of optoelectronic devices by using special hybrid light-matter waves called exciton-polaritons. These waves can carry optical energy across ultrathin materials over much longer distances than ordinary excitations, creating opportunities for devices that detect light more efficiently, respond more rapidly, and even sense light away from the main active region. The research will focus on a |
