Welcome to Dong Group

This is the Single-Molecule Optoelectronics Group (SMOG) at Hefei National Research Center for Physical Sciences at the Microscale, University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). Our research focuses on the optoelectronic behavior of single molecules in a nanoscopic environment, such as single-molecule electroluminescence and photoluminescence, single-molecule Raman scattering, and nanoscale energy transfer. The goal is to understand the microscopic mechanism of single molecular optoelectronic effects, single-molecule physics and chemistry, single-molecule nanoplasmonics, and nanoscale optoelectronic integration.
