FSU Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry Biwu Ma and his lab have spent years pioneering the use of hybrid materials known as organic metal halide hybrids, or OMHHs.

These materials combine organic molecules with metal halides, resulting in structures with easily manipulated properties that are used in solar cells, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and more.

This fall , their work related to various aspects of these materials was published in three scientific journals.

The team demonstrated that 0D OMHHs provide an eco-friendly, low-cost alternative with advantages including high-sensitivity, low detection limits and solid stability.

Ma filed a U.S. patent application for these OMHH -based direct X-ray detectors.

The team is seeking grant support to further advance this technology.
