Research summary
Dr Kee’s research group currently focus on using femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy and fluorescence upconversion spectroscopy to understand how the shape of the nanostructure affects the energy and charge transfer processes. Because conjugated polymers are used as organic solar cell materials, a good understanding of these processes will lead to strategies for improving the efficiency of organic solar cells.
