Persistent photoconductivity in hBN

Defect discovery and photoinduced doping in hexagonal boron nitride, aimed at deep-UV optoelectronics.

Current work · Now

Part of the ANR BIRD project at LPENS. I use DFT, GW and the Bethe-Salpeter equation together with machine-learning interatomic potentials and molecular dynamics to identify defects that control photoinduced doping and persistent photoconductivity in hBN.
