Description

A platform for upscaled demonstration of emerging photovoltaic materials. This project aims to establish a platform composed of a suite of essential facilities including a slot-die coater, integrated electroluminescence/photoluminescence/Infrared imaging system, module level solar simulator, climate chamber and an outdoor solar cell test bed, enabling upscaled fabrication and assessment of the commercial feasibility of promising materials for photovoltaics (PV) and other applications. The proposed research infrastructure bridges the critical gap between laboratory research and commercialisation. The expected outcomes of commercially viable high value-add materials will enhance manufacturing capability of Australia in the area of advanced materials and clean energy technologies, generating economic benefits.. Scheme: Linkage Infrastructure, Equipment and Facilities. Field: 0912 - Materials Engineering. Lead: Prof Hongxia Wang
