ADVANCED ELECTRONIC MATERIALS PJ Functional Materials

Manipulating crystal atoms to create new matter

Pioneering new materials, physical properties, and functionalities

To contribute to the foundations of industry and technology innovation, and to the creation of ubiquitous clean energy and energy-saving technologies, we will build a global research network, with the outstanding research groups in the University as core, and carry out research and development on new advanced electronic materials.

Fusion of materials synthesis technologies and physical properties research

In the Advanced Electronic Materials Projects, we seek to establish new scientific principles in advanced electronic materials and to develop new materials, physical properties, and functionalities, by fusing the forefront of materials synthesis technologies and physical properties research to develop organic and inorganic electronic materials in bulk crystal, thin film, nano-structure, hetero-structure and other forms. In the future, we will aim to establish new research fields and to apply new matter, properties and functional materials to technologies for saving, creating, and storing energy.
