Plasmonic NPs are usually poor solar-to-electricity converters. We say they aren’t; not using electrons, but with plasmonic heat. We have developed plasmon-powered STEGs with a record efficiency of ~11.5%. Now out in Nano Letters. Congrats Radha Krishna Kashyap pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ac…

We continue our efforts in developing all-InP QD based light harvesters. This time we show ‘ligand-directed FRET process’ between green and red emitting InP QDs in solution and solid states - now out in Applied Physics Letters. Congrats @Mr_Lumens & Adhra Sury pubs.aip.org/aip/apl/articl…
