A publication in Nature Materials

Our paper entitled Conductivity in organic semiconductors hybridized with the vacuum field has been published online in Nature Materials yesterday. We show that one can enhance the mobility of carriers, and thus the conductivity, in organic semiconductors, by placing them under the strong coupling regime.

A News and Views in the same edition is also highlighting our work. Congratulations to all our co-workers !
