Congrats to Yutong and Schwartz Research Group @UCLA on their recent Chemistry of Materials paper 🎉 In their work, they show how the formation of charge transfer complexes in P3HT/F4TCNQ can be controlled by changing the processing solvent. You can read more here: pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10…

Ken Mei (@kmei94) from our group advanced to PhD candidacy yesterday and we are all so proud of him! 🥳 #ucla #phdcandidate #phdjourney

We are so proud of Andy from our group for earning a 2021 Ralph & Charlene Bauer award in recognition of his research work, teaching, and service! ☺️🎉

Introducing Dr. Stanfield! It is bitter/sweet as Dane prepares to transition into his new role as a R&D packaging engineer with Intel! Additionally, Dane and his wife are expecting their first child! We are so excited for his future endeavors but Dane will be greatly missed. 🥲

So glad most of us were able to get together before Dane leaves!!🖤
