The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded Clemson University's Division of Research a $377,053 Project Grant under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) federal grant program. The funding supports research to investigate transient charge and exciton dynamics in halide perovskite semiconductors, particularly under electrical excitation. The project aims to develop an ultrafast electroluminescence testbed to study free charge carrier recombination, exciton funneling and recombination, and interfacial charge-transfer state energies within perovskite materials and related heterojunctions. This research seeks to bridge gaps in understanding perovskite device performance under real-world operating conditions to enable transformative advancements in next-generation optoelectronic technologies like LEDs and solar cells. The project, which runs from July 2024 to June 2027, also includes efforts to strengthen U.S. technological leadership, cultivate the next generation of scientists and engineers, and engage K-12 students in STEM outreach activities.
