The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Summary
Overcoming the Intrinsic Instability of Perovskites Materials and Devices. This project aims to improve the intrinsic stability of metal halide perovskite energy materials for advanced optoelectronic applications. The key concept is to suppress the phase-segregation for alloyed perovskite by interstitial management as well as develop low-temperature crystallization for non-alloyed perovskite through rational design of the intermediate phase evolution, which has the potential to generate new know ....Overcoming the Intrinsic Instability of Perovskites Materials and Devices. This project aims to improve the intrinsic stability of metal halide perovskite energy materials for advanced optoelectronic applications. The key concept is to suppress the phase-segregation for alloyed perovskite by interstitial management as well as develop low-temperature crystallization for non-alloyed perovskite through rational design of the intermediate phase evolution, which has the potential to generate new knowledge in addressing the key challenge on the operational stability of perovskite devices. The outcomes are expected to deliver valuable intellectual property to accelerate the commercialization of perovskite technology, enabling low-cost utilization of solar energy for a sustainable and low carbon-emission economy.Read moreRead less
Enabling technology unlocking full potential of high bandgap chalcopyrite . This project is aimed at solving the fundamental challenges of high bandgap chalcopyrite light-harvesting material to unlock its full potential as the top cell for photovoltaic tandem cell and the photocathode for photoelectrochemical applications.

This project is aimed at solving the fundamental challenges of high bandgap chalcopyrite light-harvesting material to unlock its full potential as the top cell for photovoltaic tandem cell and the photocathode for photoelectrochemical applications. This will be realised by dynamic optimisation of its performance in photovoltaic solar cell device through understanding of its defects origins, enabling defects controlling technologies, and microscopic carrier loss mechanism analysis via systematic macro-to-micro characterisations combined with 3D device simulation. The project completion will reinforce the next-generation tandem cell and photoelectrochemical technologies with the efficient, stable, RoHS-compliant and thin chalcopyrite devices.Read moreRead less
Solar rechargeable Zinc-Bromine Flow Batteries. This project aims to develop a new solar rechargeable Zinc-Bromine flow battery for better utilization of the abundant yet intermittently available sunlight. The key design is to create a solar-driven photoelectrochemical process to convert the discharged electrode materials back to their charged states and realise the direct storage of solar energy. Expected outcomes include new solar driven rechargeable technology and photoelectrode materials, as ....Solar rechargeable Zinc-Bromine Flow Batteries. This project aims to develop a new solar rechargeable Zinc-Bromine flow battery for better utilization of the abundant yet intermittently available sunlight. The key design is to create a solar-driven photoelectrochemical process to convert the discharged electrode materials back to their charged states and realise the direct storage of solar energy. Expected outcomes include new solar driven rechargeable technology and photoelectrode materials, as well as new knowledge generated from collaborations across materials science, photoelectrochemistry and nanotechnology disciplines. Further advances in functional materials for solar energy storage will assist in addressing the global energy shortage and mitigating environmental pollution.Read moreRead less

This project aims to develop technologies enabling stable perovskite photovoltaic (PV) devices with efficiency beyond 25%. The project is built upon my up-to-date achievements on efficiency and patented technologies on stability. The key concept is to lay single-crystalline-featured electron-transport-layer as foundation, followed by superior and neat perovskite light harvesting material through backbone modulation, crystal-facets management and surface-impurity removal. The outcomes are expected to deliver intellectual property academically and commercially, including new knowledge in addressing challenges toward efficient and stable perovskite PV devices and the associated patents for next-stage commercialization.Read moreRead less
