Sectors: Energy, Advanced Materials, Environment & Sustainability

We study the synthesis, characterisation and initial application of new materials for energy conversion and storage. This includes Li-ion, Li-sulphur, sodium-ion and zinc-ion battery electrode materials; supercapacitor and pseudocapacitor electrode materials; dye-sensitised and perovskite solar cells. We have cooperated with industrial partners on projects including Li-sulphur batteries, Li-ion cathodes; titania materials for solar cells; electrocatalytic water splitting and photocatalysts for water treatment.
