Introduction
The Nanoscale Optoelectronics Group, headed by Professor John Lupton, is a new and growing condensed
matter research group in the Physics Department at the University of Utah.
The mission of our group is to develop and implement new spectroscopic techniques to gain a fundamental
understanding of the elementary properties of optoelectronic materials. The goal of our activities is
to identify strategies to improve the performance of devices such as light-emitting diodes and solar cells,
as well as developing novel optical sensing techniques.
We have recently finished constructing our first optics lab comprising a variety of new, state-of-the-art
spectroscopic equipment which is centered around a broadly tunable Ti:Sapphire laser. In
addition to the optics lab, we also have a wet chemistry lab that is used for simple chemical reactions and
sample preparation.
