Funded Activity Summary

Band-Gap Engineered Visible Light Photocatalysts: Enabling Technologies for Sustainable Energy and the Environment. This program will contribute significantly to knowledge advancement in colloid chemistry, nanomaterials and electrochemistry, and is firmly embedded in the National Research Priorities of Frontier Science and an Environmentally Sustainable Australia. In particular, it addresses the goals of water and low emission energy supply. The outcomes of this research will advance a new class of visible-light active photocatalysts that underpin the development of hydrogen generation, low cost solar cells and water purification using sunlight. Such technologies will transform the Australian energy and environmental industries and speed up the transition from a fossil fuel economy to a renewable energy economy.
