研究领域

Surface treatment of metallic materials The research aims at developing new surface treatment techniques and/or modify the current techniques in order to effectively imporve the surface properties of metal components. Grain refinement of cast metals The research focuses on seeking new grain refiners for cast metals based on fundamental research results and to refine the as cast grain size, and to improve the properties of cast metals Crystallography of phase transformations in solids Understanding of the crystallography of phase transformation will leads design more effective materials processing techniques and therefore to produce higher quality materials. Thin film solar cells The project aims to investigate the crystallographic features of thin film polycrystalline solar cells using the edge-to-edge matching model and advanced material characterisation techniques. This is an innovative and interdisciplinary approach to the study of solar cells. It also targets the formulation of key criteria for highperformance solar cells and at development of novel solar cells. The work will generate new scientific knowledge in the areas of material science and physics and promote the applications of this type of clean energy. Hence, the research has scientific and technological significance. It will also be beneficial to the environment and climate change.
