Funded Activity Summary

Chemical and morphological engineering of semiconductor electrodes for high efficiency solar cells. The expected outcomes of the project are the preparation and development of sophisticated electrodes for solar cells, the main advantage of which resides in their designed chemical and morphological properties. The resulting electrodes have the potential to improve the efficiency of the solar cells over current industrially used materials. The products and mechanisms developed are envisaged to be amenable to large scale-up in industry. Hence, at a future date, there is the potential to fabricate the electrodes in Australia and then export the materials or technology internationally. This will benefit the Australian economy through employment of Australians and income generated through exports.
