High-performance printable hybrid light-emitting device architectures*******Vision: The long-term goal of this Discovery Grant is to develop an internationally-recognized research program investigating the fundamental interrelations between the synthesis printable optoelectronics is one of these rapidly-emerging sectors. In recent years, there was an extraordinary push to develop new and better low-cost and printable optoelectronic platforms for solar-energy harvesting, lighting position techniques, which are well-suited to produce unique film architectures using a wide range of solution-based materials. These deposition techniques are also ideal to combine seemingly incompatible materials, or to address solvent compatibility issues when producing hybrid thin-film heterostructures.*******Meanwhile, exciting new printable material systems have also gained tremendous momentum in the last 5 years including new sol-gel precursors to produce high-quality nano-engineered metal-oxide materials, better quantum dots ve unparalleled control on the emission properties and reach unprecedented device performance in hybrid printable LEDs. In the next five-year, we will focus on exploring (1) combinatorial co-jetting of hybrid polymer microdroplets with and without quantum dots and (2) carbon nanotube metal-oxide (e.g. TiO2) nanofiber networks embedded within a perovskite matrix to achieve the desired control and lead to significantly-improved devices that can potentially transform the field of printable LEDs and other low-cost devices for light-harvesting and sensing applications. *****
