Personal profile

About Me

Dr. Yaakov R. Tischler heads the Molecular Photonics Laboratory at the Bar-Ilan Institute for Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials (BINA). The lab is focused on understanding light-matter interactions in nanoscale materials and devices, combining ultra-fast and nearfield spectroscopy with thin-film deposition of optoelectronic devices. Prior to joining Bar-Ilan's Chemistry Department, Yaakov was a post-doctoral fellow at the Massachusettes Institute of Technology, where he investigated microcavity organic lasers, strong light-matte coupling, and the excitonic interactions in J-aggregates of cyanine dyes and semiconductor quantum-dots. Yaakov earned his Masters and PhD from MIT, his Bachelor's from the University of Pennsylvania, and holds 12 US patents.

Research:

  1. Coherent coupling in light-matter coupled systems: Organic Lasers, J-aggregates, and Polaritons.     
  2. Ultra-high resolution scanning microcopy and spectroscopy.
  3. Applications of ultra-fast non-linear spectroscopy for energy sustainability.
  4. Novel approaches to organic crystal growth and OLED deposition.
