Research Group
Name of Research Group:Laboratory of Renewable Energy Materials & Devices (La FREMD)
Description of Research Group:Laboratory of Flexible Renewable Energy Materials & Devices (La FREMD) was established in 2019. It is supported by the School of Energy and Power Engineering, Chongqing University, and belongs to the Key Laboratory of Low-grade Energy Utilization Technology and System, Ministry of Education. In cooperation with the School of Materials Science and Engineering, National University of Singapore, the CQU-NUS New Energy Materials and Devices Joint Laboratory was established in 2018. It has a research team of more than 30 people composed of professors, associate professors, lecturers, engineers, PhD students and master students, and all full-time teachers have obtained doctoral degrees from well-known overseas universities. In recent years, lots of work has been done on photovoltaic materials, thermoelectric materials, conductive polymers, photothermal conversion materials, and flexible energy storage materials, and outstanding research results have been achieved. The team combines experimental technologies such as preparation, testing, and characterization, based on first-principles calculations, molecular dynamics, machine learning and other methods, and has the ability to explain new energy materials from mechanism interpretation, performance prediction, material design, material screening, material synthesis to device realization Full coverage research capabilities.
