Charge Transport Layers for Organic Electronics

My current work with Prof. Simon Trudel revolves around the fabrication of charge transport layers for flexible organic light emitting diodes. This work is sponsored by Alberta Innovates and involves a consortium of 3 different research groups at the University of Calgary.

Solar Fuels for Renewable Energy Storage
Abstract graphic.jpg

At the Commissariat à l'énergie atomique et aux énergies alternatives (Alternative energies and Atomic Energy Commission) in Grenoble, France I worked on projects concerning the production of solar fuels using transition metal complexes as photosensitizers and catalysts.

Organic Semiconductors for Solar Energy Conversion
CSC Abstract 1.png

My doctoral research with Prof. Tim Kelly at the University of Saskatchewan Involved the synthesis of molecular and polymeric organic semiconductors for use in organic solar cells. This work focussed on fundamental relationships between molecular structure and the optoelectronic properties of the resulting materials and devices.
