Thème :
Optical properties of materials (single crystals, glasses, glass-ceramics and nano particle phosphors.
Présentation :
My area of expertise is working on materials for optics (or optical materials). These are materials in the form of single crystals, glasses, or fluorescent particles doped with luminescent rare-earth ions. We're exploring applications in the fields of solid-state laser materials, temperature probes, and even applications in photovoltaic cells by improving their quantum efficiency by depositing a layer of glass doped with rare-earth ions. I'm also interested in materials that can generate white light from blue-green (or yellow)-red emission lines for applications as white light sources.
