Professor Liu Bin\u2019s primary research interest is to innovate chemistry and materials with a focus on the design, synthesis and application of organic molecules and nanomaterials with optimised performance for energy and biomedical applications.\u00a0Her team has built a series of technology platforms (e.g. light-up molecular probes, multifunctional nanoparticle probes, and living materials) to advance biomedical research with practical applications in sensing, imaging, and image-guided therapy, as well as bacterial detection and ablation. These have been achieved through precise molecular engineering and a thorough understanding of the photophysical properties of materials.<\/p>\n

Her team also works on organic semiconductor based visible-light-driven photocatalyst for water splitting and carbon dioxide reduction.\u00a0Recently, her research group discovered that impurities can significantly contribute to the optical properties of many carbazole derivatives and other organic compounds. This opens new opportunities to develop high performance luminescent materials.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
