The devices underpinning our modern world largely rely on elements like silicon, indium, transition metals, and rare earths that typically require energy-intensive processing. In todays world, not only is there a desire to reduce energy costs, but also to find new materials and devices to generate, transmit and store renewable energy. Nanoscale and carbon-based materials offer exciting alternatives, largely utilizing low-energy solution-based synthesis and processing, while also offering unique new functionality. We seek to understand and control the electronic and optoelectronic properties of small molecules, polymers and graphene for future device applications in energy and information technology.

支撑我们现代世界的设备在很大程度上依赖于硅、铟、过渡金属和稀土等元素，这些元素通常需要能源密集型加工。在当今世界，人们不仅渴望降低能源成本，而且还希望找到新的材料和设备来生产、传输和储存可再生能源。纳米级和碳基材料提供了令人兴奋的替代方案，主要利用基于低能量溶液的合成和处理，同时也提供了独特的新功能。我们寻求了解和控制小分子、聚合物和石墨烯的电子和光电特性，以便在未来的能源和信息技术设备应用中使用。
