University of South Carolina, Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry “INTERFACIAL CHEMISTRY OF SEMICONDUCTOR NANOCRYSTALS” ​Colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals – a type of quantum dot (QD) – are well-known as bright, highly photostable inorganic fluorophores that can be well-suited to imaging applications in biology. Additionally, the delocalized electronic states present in nanoscale semiconductors should offer distinctive ways […]

​Sharonda recently defended her Ph.D. dissertation, entitiled: “Electric field dependent spectroscopy of single nanocrystal systems” in front of a packed audience. She completed the work under the supervision of Dr. Patrick Moyer (Physics and Optical Science) and Dr. Marcus Jones (Chemistry) and will soon be starting a postdoctoral position with Dr. Gloria Elliot (Mechanical Engineering […]
