ASU researchers from a broad spectrum of disciplines are looking to the light to solve society’s grand challenges.

LightWorks pulls light-inspired research at ASU under one strategic framework. LightWorks is a multidisciplinary effort to leverage ASU’s unique strengths, particularly in renewable energy fields including artificial photosynthesis, biofuels, and next-generation photovoltaics. LightWorks will eventually include other light-based projects in fields ranging from healthcare to computing and beyond.

"Help us lead a green revolution, developing new sources of
clean energy that will power our economy and preserve our planet."
