🚨New Publication🚨

In collaboration with Marcel Bouvet at @ICMUB we developed p- and n-type heterojunction ammonia gas sensors where the majority charge carrier was controlled by peripheral fluorination of a silicon phthalocyanine sublayer. @DrLessard

Félicitations au professeur d’@uOttawaGenie, @DrLessard, et son équipe pour cette avancée révolutionnaire dans la fabrication de dispositifs.
🥼👏
Hats off to @uOttawa professor @DrLessard and his team for this breakthrough, opening the doors to a realm of new tech possibilities.

[CanadianLightSource @CanLightSource]

Researchers from @uOttawa @DrLessard @uOttawaGenie recently used the CLS to study conductive polymers, organic materials making possible next-gen tech such as stretchable solar panels and sensors for optimizing cannabis harvest.

@JessicaLTami check us out!

[Benoît Lessard, Ph.D. @DrLessard]

Congrat @BenjaminKing96, this one was a big one. lots of great work. happy to see this one finally out.

@uOttawaGenie @uOttawaResearch

[Benjamin King @BenjaminKing96]

Our publication in @ChemMater is out! We investigate the threshold for air-stable electron transport in silicon phthalocyanines and report eight new and exciting derivatives. The answer to how many fluorine atoms we need may surprise you! @DrLessard
