Funded Activity Summary

Quantum Dot Self-Assembly via Langmuir Decomposition. We will develop a new capability to precisely position quantum structures on surfaces in large-scale patterns, solving a key problem in nanotechnology. We expect to generate patents governing key lithographic technology which will underpin the fabrication of the next generation of devices and we anticipate the generation of spin-off companies in this area. The ability to integrate new quantum structures into optoelectronics will impact everyday life from communications and lighting to environmental sensing and medical care. The project will generate key expertise and high level training for post-doctoral fellows and post-graduate students in materials physics and nanotechnology.
