Transforming the way we interact with light

The NSF Center for Integration of Modern Optoelectronic Materials on Demand (IMOD) is making atomically precise semiconductors and integrating them into applications ranging from high-definition VR displays to scalable single-photon sources needed to power optical quantum communication and computing.

We are educating a new generation of scientists and engineers through convergent team-based collaboration across traditional disciplinary and organizational interfaces.
