Theoretical Analysis of Experimental Data of Sodium Diffusion in Oxidized Molybdenum Thin Films
Energies, 2021 In this work, the diffusion process of sodium (Na) in molybdenum (Mo) thin films while it was deposited on soda lime glass (SLG) was studied. A small amount of oxygen was present in the chamber while the direct-current (DC) magnetron sputtering was used ...

Life Cycle Global Warming Impact of Long-Distance Liquid Hydrogen Transport from Africa to Germany
Hydrogen, 2023 The global interest in hydrogen as an energy carrier is steadily increasing. In this study, multiple scenarios of liquid hydrogen exports from Africa to Germany are analyzed by life cycle assessment (LCA) to quantify the global warming potential (GWP) of

Nanocarbon-Based Photovoltaics [PDF]
ACS Nano, 2012 Carbon materials are excellent candidates for photovoltaic solar cells: they are Earth-abundant, possess high optical absorption, and superior thermal and photostability. Here we report on solar cells with active layers made solely of carbon nanomaterials that present the same advantages of conjugated polymer-based solar cells - namely solution ...
