Charge trapping
"We are delighted to be working with responsive and leading edge researchers in areas important to advancing the core technology upon which our company relies in order to harvest a strong base of innovation to build future value in our commercialisation endeavours."

CEEM will combine the predictive power of first principles theoretical modelling with structural, spectroscopic and photophysical materials characterisation to quantify the factors responsible for charge trapping at surface and interfaces at an atomistic level.
Once validated and refined on unmodified films, we will use predictive modelling to assess modification strategies to reduce charge trapping. This ability to theoretically screen various possible modification routes is a key advantage to the CEEM approach.
"Our ability to theoretically screen various possible modification routes is a key advantage and offers a potential new paradigm for knowledge-led design of solar oxide materials."
