Dr Lefteris Danos

Lecturer

Research Overview

Lefteris’s research focuses on photovoltaics and solar energy conversion, with emphasis on light-harvesting and photon management structures for enhanced performance. He investigates ultra-thin film organic architectures to improve light absorption and solar energy utilisation. His work involves time-resolved spectroscopy to study photophysical processes, as well as silicon surface chemistry to engineer interfaces for enhanced device performance. He develops spectral management techniques to tailor the solar spectrum, integrated into existing photovoltaic technologies. These strategies aim to enhance the performance and reduce the cost of solar electricity, contributing to the development of sustainable and affordable energy solutions.
