Frontiers of Ultrafast Dynamics in Green Energy Materials

National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU), Taiwan

Program Overview

This program, led by Prof. Chun-Fu Chang at the Department of Applied Chemistry, NYCU, focuses on the application of ultrafast and vibrational spectroscopy to green energy materials. Research topics include metal halide perovskites, photocatalytic semiconductors, and optoelectronic molecular systems, with an emphasis on carrier dynamics, energy conversion, and interfacial processes.

Participants will gain hands-on experience with advanced spectroscopic techniques, including femtosecond transient absorption (TA), time-resolved infrared spectroscopy (TR-IR), and femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy (FSRS).
