Tisdale Lab @ MIT
nanoscale energy transport
We are an experimental research group, under the direction of Professor William Tisdale, in the Department of Chemical Engineering at MIT. Broadly, our interests lie in understanding and controlling the movement of energy in nanostructured materials. We care about the mechanisms by which excitons, free charges, phonons (heat), and reactive chemical species are converted to more useful forms of energy, and how we can leverage this understanding to guide materials design and process optimization. We specialize in advanced optical spectroscopy techniques, including femtosecond laser methods and time-resolved optical microscopy, and in the synthesis of next-generation semiconductor nanomaterials, including colloidal quantum dots and halide perovskites.

Tisdale Lab PhD student Thomas Sheehan won first prize for his poster “Using Time-Resolved Microscopy to Probe Exciton Diffusion in CsPbBr3 Superlattices” at the Symposium EL-02 (Emerging Ultrafast Optical and Structural Probes in Materials Science).
Tisdale lab PhD student Narumi Nagaya Wong won first place in the AIChE Area 8E Graduate Student Award competition for her presentation on interfacial engineering for singlet fission sensitization of silicon.
