Optical materials for LED color conversion
We seek to tailor the emission properties of light emitters using integrated photonic components, rather than following the traditional approach of intrinsic or chemical modification.
NANOPHOM aims to have an economic and environmental impact, reducing energy costs for lighting and minimizing light pollution.
Light-emitting photonic architectures
Combining reliable and tunable emission of rare-earth nanocrystals and photonic architectures that enhance light-matter interaction in the visible and develop light-emitting coatings with tailore.
Our approach
NANOPHOM covers the experimental realization of materials, as well as optical characterization and performance tests, hence being naturally interdisciplinary.
Photonic environment design
We simulate the response of emitters integrated in resonant structures
Emitting coating fabrication
We fabricate transparent and efficient nanophosphor layers
Optical characterization
We measure the emission properties of nanophosphor-based photonic materials
