As an undergrad I wanted to work on my ideas but had to instead work in potato fields to help my single mom raise me and my brother. To enable dreams of young researchers I am excited to announce a $10K Nano-Innovator Grant for students/postdocs. Please RT tilabberkeley.com/nano-innovator…

Check out @tracyhle and @dncongreve 's perspective in IEEE Spectrum on "The Practical Power of Fusing Photons". spectrum.ieee.org/photon-upconve… Shout out to the editorial staff at IEEE - they really pushed my (TS) understanding of what it means to explain science to a wide audience.

"One of the great things about light is that it’s ubiquitous," says Prof. @dncongreve. "It’s everywhere; we know how to generate it; we know how to harness it. And as we continue to develop finer and finer control over these things, light becomes an enormously powerful tool."

Excited to share our latest work about upconversion nanotechnology! These thin films can convert ~850 nm photons to ~610 nm photons with low two photon absorption threshold ~50 mW/cm2. ACS Nano #photonics #upconversion #Y6

I’m actually reading biography of Steve Jobs recently 😅

Very excited to share our latest wide bandgap semiconductor optoelectronics! #perovskite #nanotechnology #ultraviolet #LEDs #Stanford ChemRxiv

Check out Sebastian Fernández , Claire Anderson, Alexandria Boehm, and @dncongreve 's recent article showcasing the efforts towards increasing DEI & access to engineering through the Stanford Engineering Research Introductions Organization (SERIO). 🙌👏🫶 tinyurl.com/4sccuzvv

Photoresponsive perovskite LEDs can function as touch screens, light sensors, and image sensors, all in one device! Imagine a display that can also charge and sense images without added sensors. #perovskite #innovation #optoelectronics

Thank you all so much for the help and support!

So proud to have worked with you all over the past years. Wishing you all the best in your future adventures!

Will you be at SPIE in San Diego this week? Check out our fearless leader, @dncongreve, highlight some awesome LED work from the group!

Huge congrats to Manchen Hu , Junrui, Natalia Murrietta, Sebastian Fernández , will michaels, Qi, and @pournimanaraya1 for their awesome UV LED work!

Congrats to Rabeeya, Demeng, @pournimanaraya1 Manchen Hu Emma Belliveau Linda P, and all the other co-authors in the Kats/@dncongreve labs for their VERY exciting pre-print on passive upconversion imaging! arxiv.org/abs/2411.18707
