Laboratory for Nanostructured Energy Conversion Devices
Laboratory for Nanostructured Energy Conversion Devices (LNECD)
Our laboratory is a highly collaborative research environment, where students and faculty from several different departments participate in the development of novel nanostructured materials, devices, and processing methods, with a strong focus on energy-related topics. The focus is on the solid-state interconversion of light and electricity (organic-based photovoltaic and light-emitting devices), as well as heat and electricity (semiconductor-based thermoelectric devices).
The highly interdisciplinary nature of the research demands a diversified make-up of the laboratory personnel. Thus, LNECD is co-directed by Prof. Shtein (Materials Science and Engineering) and Prof. Pipe (Mechanical Engineering), and is staffed by graduate and undergraduate students from several academic departments, including:
- Materials Science and Engineering
