Our work @angewandtechemie.bsky.social explores solar energy storage in NBD/QC dimers. We discovered an interplay between structure, fluorescence, and switching. The best system reached an efficiency of 2.9% a record for what we have developed so far onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Organic light-emitting diodes - more commonly known as OLEDs - are usually found in our TV and phone screens, but now Northumbria researchers think they may have found a new way to use them... to detect pesticides being used in the farming industry.

OLED materials have potential new uses in detecting pesticides for the farming industry
Researchers are set to shine a different kind of light on the farming industry after receiving funding to explore how fluorescent materials can detect the presence of pesticides and herbicides in food...

It was a pleasure to give a talk @edinburghchem.bsky.social earlier this month. Thanks Cate Anstöter for the invite and to Iain Wright for chairing the session. I managed to fit in parkrun the next morning too. #Chemistry #Science

We finished 2024 with a group meal at My Delhi followed by a group meeting and coffee at Lagom. We have had many successes to celebrate this year due to the hard work of the team and we wish Ruth a fantastic visit to Canada in the New Year. Here's to more great science in 2025! #ChemSky #PhysicsSky
