We are thrilled to announce that Kaila successfully defended her PhD thesis on the spectroscopic investigation of non-fullerene acceptors! What a wonderful contribution to the field of organic photovoltaics!

Kaila and Isabelle represented our group at this year’s MRS Fall Meeting in Boston. Kaila gave a talk about noise suppression in pump–probe spectroscopy while Isabelle presented her work on the enhancement of charge transport properties in organic mixed ionic-electronic conductors. Thanks to both of you for the wonderful talks!

We had a wonderful visit and enthusiastic talk from Paul Meredith during his visit to FemtoMat!

We had a beautiful excursion to Lavaux! Nothing inspires science like fresh air, lake swimming, and a walk in the vineyards!

Introducing Dr. Gonzague Rebetez! What an excellent thesis, defense, and contribution to the field of bioelectronics from Gonzague!

Priscila had an oral contribution focused on her work on spectroelectrochemistry of P3HT; Isabelle won the best poster prize for her results of a spectroelectrochemical investigation of IDTBT; and Cedric presented a poster of his electromodulated differential absorption experiments on OPV blends at this year’s Swiss Chemical Society Photochemistry Conference

Natalie had an invited talk and chaired a session of the MRS Spring 2022 meeting in Hawaii, while Kaila had an oral contribution, Gareth won one of the poster prizes for the Organic Photovoltaics session, and Eva was nominated for the best poster award for her poster session.

Gareth’s most recent paper demonstrates the potential of machine learning as it applies to materials science and the prediction of material properties. Interested? Click here!

Congratulations to Dr. Gareth J. Moore as he successfully obtained his PhD! Special thanks to his committee and external expert, Koen Vandewal.

Natalie was excited to virtually share her work as part of the nanoGe meeting this spring in the symposium for Charge Dynamics of State-of-the-art Organic Solar Cells.
