I study the conversion of light into electrical charge in functional electronic materials, with particular emphasis on how chemical and microscopic structure influence these dynamics. My present tool of choice is microwave conductivity, which I use to detect the generation, transport, and recombination of mobile charges without the need for a complete device structure. My work encompasses both continued development of the microwave conductivity technique, and fundamental research on photochemical energy conversion. I have a long-standing interest in organic electronic materials, but have more recently focused my attention on hybrid organic lead-halide perovskite compounds.
