It provides information about electron dynamics and processes that take place in a semiconductor, which is useful for electronics, screens, LED, lasers, photodetectors and solar cells. It can also determine how a material will behave under extreme temperature or pressure conditions.

The main goal of this project is to improve the techniques and accuracy of the determination of quantum yield of semiconductors. Photoluminescence quantum yields are widely published in scientific literature, but they usually are not so accurate due to calibration errors and lack of practical norms for validating results.

This lack of knowledge is more pronounced when dealing with small samples, in extreme conditions and in certain areas of the electromagnetic spectrum, such as the infrared. The importance of filling this gap is crucial, because it determines the realistic applications of each material. This project will develop protocols to ensure the reproducibility of results. It will address the current lack of norms for PLQY in all the electromagnetic spectrum, including the infrared.
