Moungi Bawendi

Moungi Gabriel Bawendi is an American chemist (Born 1961, Paris). He is the Lester Wolfe Professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.[1][2][3] Bawendi is one of the pioneers in the field of colloidal quantum dot research, and among the most cited chemists of the last decade.[4]

Research Group

The Bawendi Research Group is largely focused on the study of colloidal semiconductor quantum dots, with a growing interest in organic fluorophores. Research projects are generally divided into four categories: 1. Spectroscopy, 2. Synthesis, 3. Biology, and 4. Devices.[5] Research in the group initially focused exclusively on the spectroscopic study of quantum dots[6], while recent progress has addressed many challenges in synthesis[7], biological application of nanomaterials[8][9], and solar cell research[10]. Bawendi is a pioneer in the spectroscopy of single quantum dots with single molecule spectroscopy.
