香港科技大学杨世和教授应邀报告——光电化学系列系列讲座（五十一）

2015年5月25日上午，香港科技大学杨世和教授应清洁能源实验室主任孟庆波研究员邀请，在中科院物理所M楼238做了题为Molecular, Nano- and Interfacial Structures for Efficient Solar Energy Conversion的精彩报告。

报告人简介：

Prof. Yang got his B.S. from Zhongshan University in 1982, and his Ph. D. from Rice University in 1988. He was a post-doc fellow in Argonne National Lab from 1988 to 1989, and a Research Assistant in University of Toronto from 1989 to 1992. Afterwards, he joined in HKUST as an assistant Professor from 1992 to 1998) and an associate Professor from 1992 to 2005. He was promoted as a full professor in 2005. His research interest focuses on structure, dynamics and photochemistry of cluster, fullerence/metallo fulllerence derivatives, nanoscale materials, soft molecular interfacial phenomena, energy generation/ conversion/storage. Prof. Yang has published over 450 scientific publications including Nano Lett., J. Am. Chem. Soc., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., Energy Environ. Sci., Acc. Chem. Res., Adv. Funct. Mater. and so on, which were cited ~13000 time (h-index 63). He has received 58 research grant awards, including State Natural Science Award (Second Class), Ministry of Education Award (First class), visiting ChangJiang Chair Professor of Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics and so on. 

报告摘要：

The new generation of solar energy conversion devices is expected to rely on our ability to design, assemble and interface materials on different length scales raging from molecular, nano-, to macroscopic scales. The key is to understand the interplay between the material components. In this talk, I will present some of our recent results in assembling and interfacing different molecular and nanostructured materials to develop solar cell and solar fuel devices. A prominent example is perovskite solar cells, for which some case studies will be presented on facilitated interfacial charge separation, new hole transporters and nanocarbon cathodes.
