About Us | ARC Centre of Excellence in Exciton Science

Researching innovative energy solutions throughout Australia

What we do

RESEARCH, DISCOVER, TRANSFORM

The ARC Centre of Excellence in Exciton Science is funded by the Australian Research Council to bring together researchers and industry to discover new ways to source and use energy.

The Centre is a collaboration between Australian universities and international partners to research better ways to manipulate the way light energy is absorbed, transported and transformed in advanced molecular materials.

We work with industry partners to find innovative solutions for renewable energy in:

  • solar energy conversion,
  • energy-efficient lighting and displays,
  • security labelling and optical sensor platforms for defence.

Who we are

SCIENTISTS, COLLABORATORS, FACILITATORS

The Centre is led by Professor Paul Mulvaney.  We are a collaboration of the best researchers in Australia at the University of Melbourne, Monash University, RMIT, UNSW Sydney and the University of Sydney.

We work with our Industry Partners - Reserve Bank of Australia, CSIRO & Department of Defence: Defence Science & Technology Group - to transform our research into practice.

The ARC Centre of Excellence in Exciton Science is funded by the Australian Research Council.

We are aiming for a future where all types of light transform into renewable energy.

A future where light powers our world.
