Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
Future generations of optoelectronic devices may be produced through molecular self-assembly, utilising certain biomolecules with a density of optical and electrical circuitry unachievable via conventional technology. In our proposed work we aim to develop a platform for self-assembled biomaterials allowing transfer of energy to/from semiconductor structures, and hence integration with external conventional electronics. Our approach will use, and have control over, a method of energy transfer often found in naturally occurring systems which involves energy flow between very closelyspaced oscillating dipoles.
