Solar Energy Conversion
Chief Scientist:


Prof. Can Li, MCAS

Research Directions:
To provide scientific support for the high-efficiency solar energy utilization, focusing on the new generation of the conversion technologies of solar cells and solar fuels. It is scheduled to investigate the following subjects: (1) To develop efficient photocatalytic, photoelectrocatalytic and photovoltaic-electrocatalytic systems for solar fuels production; (2) To carry out the basic investigations of new photovoltaic systems such as Perovskite photovoltaic cell; (3) To reveal the mechanisms of energy transfer, electron transfer and charge separation in solar fuel and solar electricity conversion processes.

Research area:
(1) Hydrogen generation from photocatalytic water splitting and solar fuels conversion from CO2
(2) Photo(electro)catalytic and photovoltaic-electrocatalytic systems for the solar fuels production
(3)Construction of Highly Efficient Composite Cocatalyst Systems for Artificial and Natural-Artificial Photosynthesis
(4) New generation of solar cell
