Nanothermodynamics for optoelectronic semiconductor devices

Thermal fluctuations and non-equilibrium carriers can significantly alter the physical properties of nanoscale systems, and could be used to enhance the efficiency of energy-conversion therein. Here we describe our research to exploit these effects to boost the performance of nanoscale optoelectronic devices in a project funded by the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation. Grant number: 2016.0089 T

Fluorescent nanodiamonds successfully injected into living cells

Published 4 March 2021 As odd as it sounds, many scientists have attempted to place extremely small diamonds inside living cells. Why? Because nanodiamonds are consistently bright and can give us unique knowledge about the inner life of cells over a long time. Now physics researchers Elke Hebisch and Christelle Prinz from the strategic research area NanoLund have succeeded in injecting a large num
