A Banting Postdoctoral Fellowship<\/a> has been awarded to Cristina Rodriguez Seco, a postdoctoral fellow in Professor Dongling Ma<\/a>\u2019s team at the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Banting Postdoctoral Fellowship Program provides funding to the best postdoctoral candidates, nationally and internationally, to contribute to the economic, social, and scientific development of Canada. For Ms. Rodriguez Seco, this is an opportunity to continue her research on high efficiency photobatteries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“As a Banting fellow, being positioned in a cutting-edge field like integrated photobatteries is a wonderful thing, she says. The visibility this grant provides will be an important driver of innovation, stimulating collaboration between key research groups and institutions. Ultimately, it\u2019s these relationships that will result in novel breakthroughs that the growing field needs.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The work of the postdoctoral fellow at the \u00c9nergie Mat\u00e9riaux T\u00e9l\u00e9communications Research Centre<\/a> aims to develop new types of doped carbon nitride (C3N4) quantum dots which will allow efficient visible-driven photocatalysis. The photobattery will be designed to act simultaneously as a solar energy converter and storage device. For example, it could be charged by solar energy during the day and used at night at campsites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The carbon nitridewas selected because of its various advantages such as earth-abundance, high stability, cost effectiveness, visible photocatalytic activity and high potential for scale-up. Nonetheless, its visible activity still needs to be largely improved. That is why the project proposes to work with highly promising, doped-C3<\/sub>N4<\/sub> quantum dots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe field of integrated two-electrode photobatteries is still in its infancy,\u201d says Dongling Ma. \u201cThe use of C3<\/sub>N4<\/sub> quantum dots in integrated photobattery devices is an unexplored frontier that is on the cusp of becoming a burgeoning field with promising solutions to the energy storage challenge.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI\u2019m eager to be involved with this project and also grateful for the generous support of the Banting award. It will help my work get recognized on a larger scale and grow my professional network.\u201d<\/p>Cristina Rodriguez Seco, postdoctoral fellow<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
