Group for Functional Optoelectronics Devices
Our current research focuses on high performance, low cost optoelectronic materials and devices including Perovskite Solar Cells, Perovskite Light Emitting Diode, Perovskite Field Effect Transistor, Photodetectors, and Photochemical Water Splitting. Our interdisciplinary research team hosts scientists with different backgrounds of chemistry, materials, physics, and electrical engineering. We focus on applied research, while we are strongly interested in fundamental understanding of science that enables the applications.
We have a strong collaboration culture, and nearly all of our projects have collaborators from academia, industry and national labs. We train the next generation of scientists and engineers to help them succeed in a very competitive job market as well as in future careers, either in academia or private sectors.

Light emission
- In our group, we developed TADF, OLED and Perovskite light emitting devices.
- We also developed active matrix display using TFT backplane.
- We are also interested in surface chemistry of nanocrystal material to achieve promoted charge carrier mobility in the NC film as well as improved stability for luminescence.
Energy conversion
- We are interested in understanding the fundamental material and devices physics, mainly the photon to charge carrier conversion, to explore the theoretically attainable highest efficiency.
- We are also interested in device design, material processing and material chemistry for the record power conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells.
- We are also in understanding the physical and chemical properties of perovskites to enhance the stability of perovskites devices.
