Characterizing Photoactive Materials with MR Tools
During the 97th session of the Global NMR Discussion Meetings held on February 25th, 2025, via Zoom, Prof. Claudia Avalos from the New York University, USA, gave a talk on the topic "Characterizing Photoactive Materials with Magnetic Resonance Tools". The recording serves as a tutorial.
Abstract: In this presentation, I will give a broad overview of methods in magnetic resonance to characterize the structure of a subset of photoactive materials. In particular I will focus on a broad discussion of solid-state NMR and EPR methods used to characterize defect doped photoluminescent lead halide perovskites and small-molecule organic semiconductors. The methods discussed will not be an exhaustive list, but will aim to describe a general workflow of characterization based on previously published reviews and methods applied in my research lab. Links to reviews and existing simulation tutorials will be included throughout the presentation.
