Objective The aim of the project is to intensify the research activity in photonics photovoltaic, solid-state ionic and electronics leading to useful material designing and characterisation. The Centre will bring together both practical skills and theoretical knowledge as a multi-domain problem solving approach and will open opportunities for wide international exchange of ideas and experience that normally are outside budget possibilities of the Unit. Long-term targets of the envisaged activities are new photonic devices, solar cells with enhanced efficiency, novel systems for energy storage and conversion, materials for wide group microelectronic devices. Among expected impacts are increased research quality of the Centre responding to social, industrial and economic challenges by cheaper, smaller, safer and environment-friendly energy sources and elements for portable electronics.
