Dr. Peng Chen works on the development of new-generation low-cost and efficient photovoltaic technologies.

​His research interests include: (1) interfacial engineering for high-efficiency and stable perovskite solar cells, (2) scalable pinting technology for flexible solar cells, (3) multi-junction tandem solar cells and photovoltaic-related integrated devices.

​After getting his PhD degree in School of Chemical Engineering at UQ in 2020, Peng Chen started to work as an Australian Centre for Advanced Photovoltaics (ACAP) Post-doctoral Fellow in AIBN under supervsion of Prof Lianzhou Wang.
