EVALUATION OF PHOTOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES IRIDIUM-BASED MATERIALS FOR POINT-OF-NEED SOLAR FUELS PRODUCTION.THIS RESEARCH EFFORT WILL FOCUS ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF NOVEL IRIDIUM COMPLEXES WITH MULTIPLE APPLICATION. FOR THE DOD, THE IRIDIUM COMPLEX WILL BE STUDIED FOR THEIR NONLINEAR OPTICAL PROPERTIES AND SOLAR FUELS. FOR OTHER GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTS (DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY) AND CIVILIAN MARKET APPLICATIONS, THESE COMPOUNDS ARE EXTREMELY USEFUL FOR SOLAR ENERGY CONVERSION, PHOTO-CATALYST, AND ORGANIC LIGHT EMITTED DIODES (OLEDS).
