Manipulation of excitons is critical to many areas of science & technology. Interfacing 2D semiconductors with molecules opens new opportunities. For details and a hint of coming attractions :) check our The Journal of Chemical Physics Perspective! Reynolds Dziobek-Garrett Kempa Group pubs.aip.org/aip/jcp/articl…
Make sure to check out Kathryn's Kathryn Kingsbury poster at #ACSFall2024 today (Sunday) at noon! Poster #149. She's done beautiful work to identify valence trapping mechanisms in trinuclear Fe clusters assembled into coordination polymers.
A quick day trip to meet friends and collaborators Columbia University and The City University of New York
Excited to be a co-PI on this major U.S. National Science Foundation funded National Research Traineeship effort we (Johns Hopkins University & Morgan State University) just secured! It will support student research and practical training in future #microelectronic and #AI technologies. hub.jhu.edu/2024/09/06/joh… via The Hub
A big thank you to Mannix Lab and Stanford Materials Science and Engineering for hosting my visit! It was exciting to share a teaser of our upcoming results in manipulating excitons via unconventional #2d vdW heterostructures. Another great day full of stimulating discussions!
Excited to give another talk about our new platform for quantum emitters and to learn about new ways of integrating emerging materials and qubit candidates into quantum systems. Rice University #Workshop_Functional_Quantum_Defects
I am deeply honored and humbled to be the recipient of the No Bell Award from the Rice University Center for Quantum Materials (#RCQM) for critical contributions to on-time completion of my talk (bell gong was not necessary). Excited to celebrate with Kempa Group
New paper in Nano Letters! This collab with Anthony Shoji Hall shows that AgCu nanoalloys, prepared by our metal-halide method, perform admirably as CO2 reduction catalysts w/ mass activities higher than the competition. Congrats Marta Śliwa 🇵🇱 and all co-authors! pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.102…
I had the distinct pleasure of giving a colloquium at Seoul National University Dept. of Physics today. Thank you to Hong-Gyu Park for your generous hosting and for arranging a Visiting Professor's office for the day :)
I'm excited to announce that as of February 2025 I am serving as an Associate Editor at npj Journals 2D Materials and Applications! nature.com/npj2dmaterials… #2D_materials
New paper! We show how subtle variations in solid-state environment (i.e. crystal packing) can dramatically alter the mixed-valence characteristics of Fe3O(OAc)6 clusters in a 1D chain. Congrats Kathryn! Inorganic Chemistry ACS Publications pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…
Happy to call Dresden home for two months this summer! Spending time at TU Dresden and Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics courtesy of my wonderful host Xinliang Feng. I also wish to thank Stiftung Mercator for the prestigious support making this international exchange possible. If you're in town, come visit!
It was such a pleasure to visit and give a talk at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research ... the "noise-free" Precision Lab (2nd photo) is truly impressive. Thank you to Bettina Lotsch and the Lotsch Group for hosting!
