Prof. Raymond WONG Wai-yeung

Dean(FS), ADoRISE & Chair Professor of Chemical Technology

Research Overview

My research focuses on the design and synthesis of molecular functional materials and metallopolymers (1D and 2D) with photofunctional properties and energy functions. Currently, my team aims at developing sustainable energy sources and improving the technologies for energy conversions in order to meet the world’s future energy demand.
