This $1,200,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports a collaborative research effort led by Purdue University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the University of Southern California. The project aims to design a new class of quantum materials based on perovskite quantum dots that can enable efficient, wave-like transport of information and energy. Key objectives include understanding how these quantum dots can work together, how they communicate, and how to shield this communication from disruptions. The team will leverage their expertise in areas like ultrafast microscopy, quantum optics, and quantum dynamics theory to create, characterize, and model the desired quantum states and coherent interactions. This foundational research is expected to lay the groundwork for potentially groundbreaking advances in quantum materials and technologies like improved solar cells and quantum communications. The project also includes educational and outreach components to train the next generation of scientists and promote diversity in these fields.
