Inorganic Phosphosulfides for Optoelectronics

Inorganic Phosphosulfides for Optoelectronics (OPTOPUS) 
 
The discovery of a new semiconductor with specific optical and electrical properties would improve the efficiency of various key energy processes such as the production of electricity, fuel, and light. In the OPTOPUS project, we will combine high-throughput experiments and simulations to search for this “dream” semiconductor in a yet-unexplored family of compounds: Phosphosulfides. The grant will fund one PhD student and one postdoc.
