Both, transient absorption and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy are popular spectroscopic techniques, which are well-established and provide direct insight into the charge carrier dynamics of nanomaterials. In this talk, I plan to focus mainly on the developments with regards to studies of semiconductor nanostructures and nanoparticle-conjugates. Controlling the charge carrier dynamics, including hot carrier relaxation, trapping, interfacial carrier transfer, and recombination is essential for successful energy conversion at the nanoscale. I will show how femtosecond laser spectroscopy evolved into techniques that unveil the dynamic charge carrier properties of nanomaterials interfaces, heterostructures and more complex functional nanoarchitectures and that femtosecond time-resolved laser spectroscopy can illuminate the way to design novel optoelectronic devices and emergent opto-electronic technologies.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EFor more information contact \u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:melsayed@gatech.edu\u0022\u003EProf. Mostafa El-Sayed\u003C\/a\u003E (404-894-0292).\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EProf. Clemens Burda, Case Western Reserve University\n\n\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cem\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EThe Contribution of Femtosecond Laser Spectroscopy to the Development of Advanced Optoelectronic Nanomaterials\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/em\u003E\n\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\nPhysical Chemistry Seminar Series\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Prof. Clemens Burda, Case Western Reserve University"}],"uid":"27275","created_gmt":"2011-12-07 01:00:00","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 01:50:53","author":"Shirley Tomes","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2012-03-13T17:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2012-03-13T18:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2012-03-13T18:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2012-03-13 21:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2012-03-13 22:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2012-03-13 22:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"related_links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.case.edu\/artsci\/chem\/faculty\/burda\/","title":"Prof. Clemens Burda, Case Western Research University"}],"groups":[{"id":"85951","name":"School of Chemistry and Biochemistry"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"919","name":"Biochemistry"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EShirley Tomes\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EChemistry \u0026amp; Biochemistry\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.gatech.edu\/contact\/index.html?id=st81\u0022\u003EContact Shirley Tomes\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E404-894-0591\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
