Exploring Aspects of Supramolecular Chemistry as a Paradigm for Advanced Functional Materials

本研究计划旨在为新材料研究中复杂阵列的组装提供分子识别的知识基础。能够进行太阳能转换的分子系统和超分子阵列的发展（例如光伏和人工光合作用）或在催化方面有潜在应用的分子系统和超分子阵列将为澳大利亚这些行业的发展提供进步。这样的发展也可能导致光电子和清洁能源生产等领域的突破。

This research proposal aims to provide an intellectual grounding in the use of molecular recognition for the assembly of complex arrays for new materials research. The development of molecular systems and supramolecular arrays that are capable of solar energy conversion (e.g. photovoltaics and artificial photosynthesis) or that have potential applications in catalysis will provide advances in the development of these industries within Australia. Such developments may also lead to breakthroughs in areas such as optoelectronics and cleaner energy production.
