Multifunctional materials for electronics and photonics

The bottom–up approach is considered a potential alternative for low cost manufacturing and patterning of nanostructured materials [1]. It is based on the concept of self–organization of nanostructures on a substrate, and is emerging as an unconventional paradigm for traditional top down fabrication used in the semiconductor industry.

We demonstrate various strategies to control nanostructure assembly at the nanoscale. Our overarching objective is to design and synthesize new materials that will help address the energy challenge.

We study, in particular, multifunctional materials, namely materials that exhibit more than one functionality, and structure/property relationships in such systems, including for example: (i) control of size and luminescence properties of semiconductor nanostructures, synthesized by reactive laser ablation [2]; (ii) we devised new strategies for synthesizing multifunctional nanoscale materials to be used for applications electronics and photovoltaics [3-15].
