Clean Planet Programme

We explore the use of photons to shed light on the process of capturing and conversing greenhouse gases such as CO₂

Our quantum dot photovoltaic devices are low-cost, low-weight, flexible, and scalable sources of renewable energy. Most importantly, they employ environmentally friendly materials to achieve their high conversion efficiencies

We research the development of novel materials and systems for a variety of high impact clean energy applications, including solar fuels, hydrogen storage, and transparent photovoltaics

Vast quantities of energy are completely lost as waste heat. Thermophotovoltaics offers the potential to recapture a significant portions of this energy, providing a clean and renewable source of power

We’re researching the fundamentals of photosynthesis at the nanoscale, enabling a fuller understanding of the processes involved and potentially leading to innovative high efficiency solar devices

We aim at understanding how changes in light, structure and environment regulate the molecular mechanisms of photoactive (bio)molecular systems
