This PhD scholarship, part of the ARC Linkage project, aims to develop solar windows that convert urban building facades into energy sites using advanced nanomaterials, light guiding strategies, and PV cells.
This is a collaborative project focusing on developing cutting-edge, high-efficiency solar window technology. The PhD candidate will work alongside leading researchers in nanomaterials, optical management and solar cells at Macquarie University and UNSW Sydney, as well as industry partners.
The candidate will optimise the synthesis of quantum dots (QD) to improve their light emission efficiency and develop novel luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) structure using nanocomposite of the QDs to achieve high power output.
Established in 1964, Macquarie University began as a bold experiment in higher education. Built to break from traditions: to be distinctive, progressive, and to be transformational. Today our pioneering history continues to be a source of inspiration as we celebrate our place among the best and brightest minds.
