Techniques

QD Synthesis

Fully equipped state-of-the-art chemistry lab including Schlenk lines and gloveboxes.

In situ spectroscopy

Combined ms-resolved absorption and photoluminescent in situ set up for measuring QD reactions in UV-VIS-NIR (300-1700 nm)

Optical characterisation

Temperature dependent absorption and photoluminescence spectroscopy (down to 4K), as well as Temperature dependent Photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy down to 70K)

Structural characterisation

Access to LMU’s Center for Nano Science (CeNS) for Transmission electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction.

Ultrafast spectroscopy

Access to LMU’s chair for photonics and optoelectronics ultrafast spectroscopy set ups, including fs-resolved transient pump-probe setup (TAS, Newport), ps-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy (Streak, Hamamatsu) and a ns-resolved mirco-PL set up with a time-correlated single-photon counting unit (TCSPC, PicoQuant) all operable at 4K.
