Characterisation of carbon nanotube variability and application in solar cells

open access: yes, 2011
Photovoltaic solar cells (PVs) are now recognised as the world’s fastest growing energy technology, yet, they only account for a mere fraction of current global renewable power capacity. It is acknowledged that this inadequate market penetration has been

Review of light-induced degradation in crystalline silicon solar cells

open access: yes, 2016
Although several advances have been made in the characterization and the mitigation of light-induced degradation (LID), industrial silicon solar cells still suffer from different types of light-induced efficiency losses. This review compiles four decades

High‐Entropy Ceramic‐Enhanced Deformable Triboelectric Nanogenerator for Noncontact Biomechanical and Raindrop Energy Harvesting

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A large‐area, deformable high‐entropy‐ceramic (HEC)‐doped triboelectric nanogenerator with a trilayer architecture is developed, consisting of an HEC‐doped triboelectric layer, a graphite‐like textile charge‐storage layer, and stretchable carbon black electrodes.

Autonomous Folding of Soft Matter From Living Polymers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Origami structures are endowed with “living” polymer creases that grow, remodel, and stiffen in response to nutrient solutions. This post‐fabrication growth enables autonomous folding, iterative regrowth, and mechanical tuning involving origami assemblies, such as cranes, Miura‐ori tessellations, rigid and non‐rigid square‐twist patterns, establishing ...

Solar Cells From Unpolished Silicon Wafers [PDF]

open access: yes, 1976
Solar cells were made by diffusing impurities into the rough or backside of commercially available silicon wafers to form a junction. The properties of these solar cells were compared to solar cells made by diffusing impurities into the polished ...

Why perovskite solar cells with high efficiency show small IV-curve hysteresis

open access: yes, 2017
There is increasing evidence that the presence of mobile ions in perovskite solar cells can cause a current-voltage curve hysteresis. However, it is still subject of ongoing debates how exactly mobile ions influence the device operation.

Polymeric Sorbents as Energy‐Efficient Alternative to Cryogenic Distillation for Light Hydrocarbon Purification

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The transition from cryogenic distillation to polymeric sorbents for light hydrocarbon purification is crucial for energy and environmental sustainability. The polymeric sorbents are engineered to separate gas mixtures based on their specific properties.

Preparation of Ester-Crosslinked PI Membranes with Enhanced Gas Selectivity and Plasticization Resistance

open access: yesMembranes
Fabricating polyimide (PI) membranes with outstanding anti-plasticization ability and gas separation performance remains a challenge. In this study, two novel diamine monomers, DAMBO (methyl 3,5-diamino-4-methylbenzoate) and DAPGBO (3-hydroxypropyl 3,5 ...
