The Rotational Spectra of Dibromodifluoromethane

Abstract: Dibromodifluoromethane (CBr2F2), a molecule with a potential four-fold internal rotor, has been studied by the Novick group using high resolution Fourier-transform microwave (FTMW) spectroscopy. This project is based on existing research of other molecules involving hydrogen and halogen sources, including H2 MOF and CF3I. The research was designed to prove that Dibromodifluoromethane could serve … Read more

Tracking Photo-Induced Halide Segregation in Mixed-Halide Perovskite Solar Cells

Abstract: Organic-inorganic perovskite semiconductors are a promising new material in the world of solar cell technology. Though these materials show promising photo conversion efficiencies (over 29% in perovskite-silicon tandem cells), they present numerous difficulties when facing real-world application. In mixed-halide perovskites, a phenomenon known as halide segregation occurs upon photoexcitation of the material, which can … Read more
