Grant: Canada Research Chairs
University of British Columbia
$120,000.00
Sustainable Chemistry
FY 2019-20
Summary
We plan to establish a new laboratory at UBC which develops materials for efficient solid-state display and lighting technology. This facility will design light-emitting small molecules and polymers, and evaluate these materials as components of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and other optoelectronic devices. Our laboratory will design phosphorescent metal complexes as well as luminescent polymers for use in printable electronics. Finally, the self-assembly of these polymers into functional nanomaterials with potential applications in cellular diagnostics, miniaturized electronics, and the encoding of high-density information will be studied.
