Grant: Canada Research Chairs
University of Ottawa
$200,000.00
Engineered Advanced Materials and Devices
FY 2017-18
Summary
The researcher seeks to use reactive inkjet technique (RIJ) to introduce a paradigm shift in the fabrication of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs), and robust and durable conductive textile (RDCT). Starting chemicals will be prepared as inks and printed in optimized proportions, and sequence, onto specified locations of a surface/substrate, to result in synthesis of self-assembled QDs. RIJ will also be used for rapid screening and optimization of adhesion of electrically conducting polymers to textile fibres. Some of the technology areas that will benefit from the success of this research include displays and lighting, energy harvesting, and thin film battery.
