Our focus in sustainable energy is on Thin Film Photovoltaics. We are currently conducting PV research on three TF technologies - amorphous silicon (a-Si), copper indium gallium diselenide (CIGS) and organic PV (OPV). Our research focuses on the fabrication of low-cost PV cell with optimized micro-structure, morphology, composition, and interface properties. Battery is a natural extension of PV technology for sustainable energy storage. We are planning to conduct projects in the areas of high capacity Cathode and Anode materials for Lithium Ion Battery (LIB).
Efficacy improvement and cost effective fabrication process development are the two main areas for LED development. We will focus on developing advanced materials for a more reliable LED device, novel and environmental friendly nano-phosphor/quantum dots for LED with better color and efficacy, and advanced LED packaging materials and technologies for a lower cost LED device. Specifically for OLED, development efforts will be devoted to high-efficiency materials and low-cost organic film processing utilizing solution processable electrode materials and functional organic semiconductors to achieve fully printable light-emitting devices.
Environmental technologies developed by our team cover broad application areas. Antibacterial coatings are applied in hospital, healthcare facilities and building surfaces in dense areas. Functional coatings and surface treatments utilize low cost methods like dipping/spraying and advanced materials like TiO2 and nano metal particles to achieve various properties such as reflectivity, anti-corrosive, and anti-scratch to be applied on consumer and industrial products. Novel bio materials as well as reaction and process technologies are being developed for industrial waste water treatment and large scale ambient air purification. Novel reactor designs as well as overall treatment plant operation optimization further enhance the treatment capability.
We are planning to develop a cluster of smart and sustainable building products in four major categories - energy and maintenance for building envelope, and waste and noise reduction for internal building component. New materials and innovative products will be developed which include concrete with capabilities of self-healing, thermal and sound insulation, and glass/solar control film applications. Low cost and efficient sensor will be developed for structural monitoring to ensure the long term durability of construction structures.
Nanobiomaterials have recently become popular in bio/healthcare area. Fluorescence-based biolabels, fabricated from nanoparticle of natural biopolymer Chitosan, offer high sensitivity and board dynamic range at low cost. Microfluidic technologies are being developed for in vitro diagnostic devices such as Lab-on-a-Chip (LOC) that integrate all components into a single functional unit for diagnostic applications of both veterinary and human diseases.


We have engaged, some completed and some ongoing, over 50 applied research projects, many with industrial partners, in many areas including sustainable energy, display & solid state lighting, environmental technologies, building/construction materials, and bio/healthcare products.We are also available for consulting service. One example is technical due diligence evaluation. We are working with a venture capitalist company to evaluate several startup companies for investment purpose.We was also contracted to develop idea for patent application for an IP trading company.
