Summary
A surface characterisation facility. This surface characterisation facility will provide scientists with an understanding of material's surfaces and interfaces. This will lead to a range of new technologies and innovative solutions required to address the many resource and environmental challenges facing our planet now and in the future.
Well-designed Metal Oxide Semiconductors for Photocatalytic Water Splitting. The project seeks to provide new insights into the effects that structure and composition of catalyst materials have on photocatalytic properties, to tackle the bottlenecks inhibiting the commercialisation of water-splitting technology. The main objective of this project is to strategically design and synthesise highly efficient photo-harvesting mesostructural materials (multi-shelled hollow microspheres) and use them f ....Well-designed Metal Oxide Semiconductors for Photocatalytic Water Splitting. The project seeks to provide new insights into the effects that structure and composition of catalyst materials have on photocatalytic properties, to tackle the bottlenecks inhibiting the commercialisation of water-splitting technology. The main objective of this project is to strategically design and synthesise highly efficient photo-harvesting mesostructural materials (multi-shelled hollow microspheres) and use them for efficient photocatalytic water splitting. Based on an understanding of photoharvesting materials and the current challenges that plague water-splitting reactions, the project plans to use state-of-the-art materials synthesis and theoretical calculations to develop next-generation photo-harvesting materials for water-splitting systems.Read moreRead less
