Time-Resolved Spectroscopy of Hot-Carrier Dynamics

Abstract

This DURIP proposal seeks the acquisition of research equipment to develop a customized transient spectroscopy system for the characterization of ultrafast dynamics of hot carriers, and more broadly, for the investigation and interpretation of photoactive events in a wide range of material systems. The proposed instrumentation will augment several ongoing projects at Georgia Tech (1 ONR YIP, 3 MURI, 2 DARPA), and add new technical capabilities relative to DoD missions in optics, materials science, semiconductors, thermal transport, power/energy, and biotechnology. Concurrently, we will emphasize the integration of research with education and training activities, creating valuable opportunities for a broad base of participants to access this advanced spectroscopy tool, and preparing them to be a part of a high-caliber workforce in areas of national need, especially the defense industry.
