授業の概要

In recent years, the demand for renewable energy sources has been increasing. Especially efficient energy use of sunlight is expected because it has potentially 100 times larger energy than the quantity of energy that human beings needs. To utilize the sunlight energy, several aspects have been extensively studied such as solar cells, photocatalysis, photosynthesis, etc. However, there have been not many resources to cover the research fields from the basic understanding, because it needs multi-disciplinary fields of study. In this lecture, we will cover overall basics to understand the photo-devices, such as electromagnetics, optics, chemistry. We will start from the basics of the electromagnetic wave and study how to describe the interaction between light and materials. Next, we will study some of the optics and spectroscopy used for the study of the devices. Then, we will move on to the solid-light interaction based on the band structure of metals, semiconductors and insulators, and the key concept for understanding the photo-induced charge generation and separation is studied based on the band bending. At this point, we could understand various junctions between metals, semiconductors and liquids. Finally, we will study basic devices of solar cells, photocatalysts, water splitting, etc.
