- Description
- A novel organic-inorganic hybrid semiconductor material developed in our laboratory was processed into a solution and crystals were grown from this solution by drop-casting on a hot plate at 153° Celsius. These types of hybrid crystals are now being studied and applied towards cheaper, more efficient, and environmentally-friendly optoelectronic applications such as X-ray imaging detectors, LEDs, solar cells, etc. Of particular significance to my research is their application in X-ray imaging towards safer health care, scientific/industrial research, and national security.
