This is a 5-year, $235,316 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program. The grant supports research by the University of Michigan to better understand how colloidal quantum dot solids respond to mechanical strain and deformation. The project aims to reveal the underlying chemical, structural, and optoelectronic mechanisms by which the interaction between quantum dots and conjugated polymers impacts the ability of these materials to maintain their properties under physical stress. By advancing this fundamental knowledge, the research seeks to enable the development of flexible, wearable near-infrared optoelectronics for applications in healthcare, soft robotics, and other fields. The project also includes educational activities to engage high school students and undergraduates in learning about nanomaterials and nanotechnology.
