3/13/23 – Lighting Episode 303 (Full Version) – Jakoah Brgoch & Shruti Hariyani 50:14

Who knew that chemists would be working on light bulbs. Well, Jakoah and Shruti explain their research into different phosphors to find the most efficient ways to create colors – other than blue. Fifteen years in the business and we learned something new about LED’s: They don’t fade, the phosphor decomposes. Prof. Jakoah Brgoch is an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemistry and a Principal Investigator in the Texas Center of Superconductivity. Shruti Hariyani completed her Bachelor’s of Science and is in the process of her Ph.D. in Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Houston under the supervision of Professor Jakoah Brgoch.
