Primary research interest

Functional (organics & organometallics) materials design, synthesis and characterisation for organic opto-electronics

About me

I  have held a prestigious Swire Scholarship while carrying out my DPhil study on organic materials for solar cells and organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) at the University of Oxford, UK, (1996-2000). My post-doctoral research at Oxford University focused on the design, synthesis and characterisation of fluorescent and phosphorescent dendrimers (branched macromolecules) for OLEDs. I played a key role in electro-active dendrimers development so that light-emitting dendrimers have been recognised internationally as the third main class of OLED materials (alongside small molecules and pi-conjugated polymers). In December 2007, I joined the University as a Lecturer in Chemistry of Materials.

Research focus and collaborations

My research group focuses on functional materials development (from novel molecular design, synthesis and characterisation to advanced thermal/photophysical/electrochemical characterisations in device fabrication and analysis) using small molecules, oligomers, dendrimers and polymers for opto-electronics (e.g., next-generation light-emitting displays, solid-state lighting, lasers, organic solar cells, photodetectors and sensors), superconductors, health-care applications (e.g., cancer detection and therapy by multiphoton absorption), and clean fuel generation (e.g., water splitting driven by sunlight). These projects are interdisciplinary with close collaboration with leading researchers within the School, University, Australia and overseas. 

Honours students and PhD candidates who have excellent organic synthetic chemistry skills and experiences, and high interest in new materials development for organic opto-electronics should contact me ASAP.

Researcher biography

Organic functional materials development (design, synthesis & characterisation) for optoelectronics

Associate Professor Shih-Chun Lo (Lawrence)

Lawrence held a prestigious Swire Scholarship while carrying out his PhD study on semiconductor material development for organic solar cells and light emitting diodes (LEDs) at Oxford University, UK (1996-2000). His post-doctoral research at Oxford University focused on the design, synthesis and characterisation of fluorescent and phosphorescent dendrimers for higly efficient LEDs. Dendrimers have been recognised internationally as the third main class of LED materials, alongside small molecules and polymers, in which he played a key role. In December 2007, he joined the University of Queensland as a Lecturer in Chemistry of Materials. His research work has focused on the development of new functional semicondcutor materials for quantum based opto-electronic applications (e.g. solar cells, LEDs, photodetectors, sensors, superconductors & organic lasers) as well as clean energy generation.
