Welcome to the Filler Research Group at the Georgia Institute of Technology! We are a multidisciplinary team of scientists and engineers whose work lies at the interface between chemical engineering and materials science. Our research aims to develop and exploit an atomic-level understanding of chemical phenomena in nanostructured materials to enable future generations of optoelectronic materials and devices. We study fundamental processes in the bulk and at interfaces with a variety of in-situ and ex-situ spectroscopic and microscopic characterization techniques.
The majority of our work is focused in the area of solar energy conversion technology. We desire to utilize the chemical and optoelectronic knowledge developed through fundamental investigations to build highly efficient and simultaneously low cost photovoltaics. A number of projects are currently ongoing in the area of 1-D semiconductor materials and devices. For example, we are exploring new avenues in the fabrication of novel alloy materials, tandem multi-junction devices, as well as next generation photophysical processes.
