🌟SPEAKER SPOTLIGHT🌟 We welcome Dr. Dmitri Talapin of @uchicago to speak at our upcoming #MXene conference at @drexeluniv. He will be sharing his talk "Surface chemistry of MXenes." Register here to join us: mxeneconference.coe.drexel.edu

By the end of a long & busy week, folks are tired, but invigorated! The cohort has a better understanding the IMOD community. We hope that OMS^3 cohort members become ambassadors who take the messages of collaboration and engagement back to their home institutions.

This paper demonstrates for the first time that the molten salt can be a media to synthesize quantum dots. This paper also presents the first luminescent colloidal GaAs quantum dot. Redox chemistry is a powerful tool to achieve this nice materials! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

In our group at Northwestern, we're hiring! light.northwestern.edu/careers/ PDFs positions in #semiconductors include (1) one focused on new energy-efficient semiconductor electronic materials and devices (2) on the device physics of new infrared light #sensors and solar #photovoltaics

Looking forward to speak at the inaugural edition of the conference ACIN - American Conference on Inorganic Nanoscience, this July ACIN

The American Conference on Inorganic Nanoscience #ACIN starts with a session on Colloidal Quantum Dots, highlighting innovative synthesis techniques and emerging perovskite quantum dot research for future lines of research. 👉 acin.scitoevents.com

Panel discussion with Dmitri Talapin, Richard Robinson, Brandi Cossairt, Katie Knowles, Gordana Dukovic, Maksym Kovalenko, Alina Schimpf, Janet Macdonald & Andrew Greytak  demystified the faculty application process with insider tips, advice & myth-busting for early-career researchers

🙌Thank you to all #ACIN participants for sharing your research and being part of the progress towards a sustainable future!  🏆Congratulations to the Poster Prize winners!

In this paper we show successful passivation of Ga-rich InGaAs by controlling the Zn precursor to form ZnS or ZnSe shells, resulting in photoluminescence quantum yields of up to 30%. These materials show promise as heavy metal-free NIR emitters. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

We had a great time at #ACIN last week with our current lab members and lab alumni! Maksym Kovalenko Jia-Ahn Pan
