Research interests

Dr Qing Dai has worked mostly on Synthesis Chemistry, Electrochemistry and photochemistry for special devices throughout her career. She has contributed a great deal to the preparation and characterization of many kinds of related materials including organic, inorganic and polymer samples, especially on the nanoscale. Dr Dai has worked in Belgium as a visiting scientist and in Israel as a postdoctoral fellow, in the USA as a research associate and in Australia as an ARC APD. This has included collaborative work since 1999 with the Gratzel group at Laussane who are the world leaders in dye-sensitized solar cells. In particular, during her time as an ARC APD in the Monash Electrolyte Group and the Monash Solar Cell Group, she was invited to collaborate on non-volatile electrolyte materials at EPFL by Prof. M. Graetzel as well as give an invited lecture there.
