About
Professor Deotare directs the Excitonics and Photonics Laboratory (ExP Lab), which focuses on understanding and manipulating exciton dynamics (including energy transport) in low dimensional materials such as transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), organic semiconductors, and the hybrid interfaces for applications in on-chip data communication and processing, quantum metrology and quantum information science and engineering. The lab engages in collaborative, multi and interdisciplinary research to bridge knowledge and cutting-edge approaches from the fields of quantum optics, semiconductor physics, nanophotonics, excitonics, and material science. He is a recipient of the Young Investigator Award from the U.S. Air Force Office of Scientific Research in 2017 and the HKN Professor of the Year Award in 2017 at the University of Michigan. Before joining the University of Michigan in 2016, he was a postdoctoral associate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and received his Ph.D. from Harvard University in 2012.
