Abstract
The Whittaker group addresses important challenges related to understanding relationships among the composition, structure, electronic structure, and properties of inorganic and organic nanomaterials and their composites. The re-search focuses in materials chemistry and nanotechnology. The group is tackling two great challenges sustainable energy and low-cost electronics for daily use, for applications in photovoltaics, thermoelectrics, batteries, spintron-ics, and electronics. This talk will discuss the synthesis, characterization, and device fabrication of unconventional organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites for photovoltaic applications.
