An Emerging Ionic Chalcogenide Perovskites for Solar Energy Conversion

本项目旨在建立一个地球丰富的硫系钙钛矿纳米晶体库，用于高效的太阳能转换应用。关键的概念是设计无毒和稳定的cpnc，使用一个简单的解决方案，用于太阳能发电和燃料发电。预期的结果包括对合成、结构、光物理和电化学之间关系的基本理解，通过先进的建模和多尺度表征，最终实现新材料系统的太阳能发电和燃料发电性能。该项目将建立一个新兴领域的国家研究能力，并使澳大利亚处于实用太阳能转换技术的前沿。

This project aims to develop a library of earth-abundant chalcogenide perovskite nanocrystals (CPNCs) for efficient solar energy conversion applications. The key concept is to design non-toxic and stable CPNCs using a facile solution process for solar-to-electricity and fuel generation. The intended outcomes include a fundamental understanding of the relationships between the synthesis, structure, photophysics, and electrochemistry by advanced modeling and multiscale characterizations and ultimately the solar-to-electricity and fuel generation performances of new material systems. This project will build a national research capacity in an emerging field and put Australia at the forefront of practical solar energy conversion technologies.
