New chemical method paves the way for making a greater variety of light-sensitive materials

Tuesday, June 7, 2011 - 16:00 in Physics & Chemistry

Scientists from Singapore's Institute of Materials Research and Engineering (IMRE) and National University of Singapore (NUS) have created a new chemical method that enables the development of a variety of tiny light conducting metal-semiconductor contacts. These light-sensitive nano-sized components could help create bioimaging labels as well as better photocatalysts used in fuel cells.
