Research Interests
quantum dots, solar cells, ultrafast spectroscopy
1. Synthesis of various quantum dots (QDs) materials and their application in top-performing QD sensitized solar cells. Investigate the interfacial charge-transfer of QD sensitized solar cells and its influence on the performance of devices.

2. Luminescent sunlight collectors, or luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs), integrated into a building as semitransparent solar windows and/or wall panels represent a highly promising approach to building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV). I use QDs specially engineered for LSC applications.
3. Syntsize the QDs with the suppressed Auger recombination and long biexciton lifetime to realize the QD-based lasing devices.
