Our research focuses on the synthesis and assembly of nanomaterials into 3D and 2D structures to derive novel optical, electrical, and chemical properties for sensing and solar applications. In particular we are interested in developing optical sensing systems that have high sensitivity and selectivity for the detection of target even in complex media. We are also interested in organizing different nanomaterials into hierarchical photonic structures for enhancing solar energy conversion processes. Through the strategic assembly of materials and extensive physical characterizations, we expect to achieve synergistic functionalities that can open up new designs of sensing platforms and photovoltaic devices. |
