Biography

Rebecca Milot is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Physics at the University of Warwick, a position she has held since September 2018. Her research group focuses on understanding the mechanisms of energy charge transfer in materials for solar energy conversion. The group employs a variety of ultrafast spectroscopic techniques, including THz spectroscopy and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy, to study processes that occur over timescales ranging from picoseconds to milliseconds. Currently, her main research interest is in identifying and understanding optoelectronic processes in hybrid metal halide perovskite thin films, which are a class of hybrid organic-inorganic semiconductors that have shown promise for use in commercial solar cells and LEDs. Prior to joining Warwick, she was a Postdoctoral Research Assistant in the groups of Laura Herz and Michael Johnston at the University of Oxford. She obtained her MS in 2009 and PhD in 2014 in physical chemistry from Yale University under the direction of Charles Schmuttemeyer.
