Engineering defects to control the optoelectronic properties of new hetero-materials

A study on van der Waals heterostructures unveils that the photoinduced processes at the interface between the different materials can be modified by electrically controlling the occupancy of the interfacial defects. The ICN2 Ultrafast Dynamics in Nanoscale Systems Group was involved in this research, just published in Nano Letters.
