"Materials Chemistry for Optoelectronics and for Decarbonization"
Emerging materials – such as quantum dots, perovskites, and metal and metal oxide nanoparticles – are urgently needed to advance both consumer electronics and large-scale decarbonization of electricity, fuels, and chemicals. I will discuss recent advances in light sensors, LEDs and photovoltaics, and in CO2 reduction electrocatalysts, all enabled by progress in the synthesis and physicochemical understanding of such materials.
