In Dr. Jiang's Nanostructure Optoelectronics Lab, our research focuses on investigation optical and transport properties of semiconducting materials and their potential optoelectronic applications, particularly in photovoltaic region. Current research projects include:


1. Nanocomposite of Infrared Quantum Dots and Conducting Polymers: Possible Multiple Exciton Dissociation, sponsored by ACS PRF grant,

2. Solar-Cell-Microarray-Powered Ultra-High-Q Ultra-High-Frequency (UHF) Nanoprecision Resonator with SWNT as a Platform for Multi-Agent Sensing,
sponsored by FMMD grant of University of South Florida,

3. Integration of Nanomaterials into Ultra High Efficiency Solar Cells,
sponsored by FMMD grant of University of South Florida,
