Research abstract
The research on carbon neutral renewable energy sources based upon the combination of supramolecular chemistry, nanostructured inorganic materials science and optoelectronic device physics is emerging as a powerful technology platform for the 21st Century. Since the group formation in 2006, our particular interest has been the development of light driven molecular devices (solar cells) where the limited functionalities of individual molecules are enhanced by their organisation into larger systems, which can be used to convert light into different types of energy sources. On the other hand, we are also devoted to the development and study of novel materials for biomedical applications
Topics addressed
- Development of organic photovoltaic devices
- Novel materials for biomedical applications
