  • Efficient solar energy conversion systems can significantly promote a sustainable and low carbon-emission economy. This project aims to rationally design low-toxic and stable metal halide perovskites for efficient solar hydrogen conversion. The key concept is to design stable lead-free metal halide perovskite semiconductors with superior photophysical properties for solar-driven valuable chemical production. Lead-free perovskite and its analogues will be designed based on computational predictions and synthesized experimentally. Their stability and photocatalytic performance will be evaluated for solar hydrogen production in this project.

  • The commercial application of the fifth generation (5G) broadband has unlocked more potential of Internet of Things (IoT) sensors for interconnection and communication. The increasing demand on the IoT devices, particularly the wearable and printed electronics, has attracted research and development of thin and flexible energy storage devices that can fit the special integration requirement with these IoT sensors. This project aims to develop cost-effective, safe and high-performance rechargeable flexible batteries for IoT sensors particularly in the healthcare applications.
