We are mainly interested in development of various light based applications, such as sensing, imaging, photo-sensitization and optoelectronics using nano-materials and organic/polymer materials, as well as investigation of the underlying fundamental mechanisms and photophysical processes using various novel optical spectroscopy and imaging techniques to understand their working principles, which provide insights for device design of better performance. Specific foci are:

•  Nanophotonics, plasmonics, bophotonics and optoelectronics

•  Optical spectroscopy and imaging
