Atomic Size Misfit for Electrocatalytic Small Molecule Activation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores the application and mechanisms of atomic size misfit in catalysis for small molecule activation, focusing on how structural defects and electronic properties can effectively lower the energy barriers of chemical bonds in molecules like H2O, CO2, and N2.

TOPCon, TOPCoRE or TOPCon²

SiliconPV Conference Proceedings
As tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) cell technology has established itself as the dominant cell technology in global photovoltaic production, this study investigates competing architectures, including TOPCoRE (TOPCon with Rear Emitter), and local

Thermal model in digital twin of vertical PV system helps to explain unexpected yield gains

EPJ Photovoltaics, 2023
The business case of novel integrated applications of solar energy is often regarded as a straightforward extrapolation of standard solar parks. But when the design of the solar park is remarkably different from typical solar parks, the operating ...

MnI‐Functionalized Covalent Organic Framework as Efficient Electrocatalyst for CO2 Reduction in a Catholyte‐Free Zero‐Gap Electrolyzer

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the successful integration of a phenanthroline‐based 2D COF with MnI catalytic sites into a catholyte‐free membrane‐electrode‐assembly cell for CO2 electroreduction. The crystalline COF actively suppresses Mn⁰–Mn⁰ dimerization, achieving a turnover frequency of 617 h⁻¹ at 2.8 V (full‐cell potential), and enabling stable operation.

Copper Doping Enhances the Activity and Selectivity of Atomically Precise Ag44 Nanoclusters for Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
By a simple anti‐Galvanic reaction, up to six copper atoms could be preferably doped into the Ag2(SR)5 staple motifs and Ag20 dodecahedral shell of an atomically precise Ag44(SR)30 nanocluster. When anatase TiO2 is used as substrate, the (AgCu)44/TiO2 photocatalyst exhibited much improved activity in photocatalytic CO2 reduction compared to Ag44/TiO2 ...

Low-Loss Singulation of TOPCon Half Solar Cells by TLS and Al2O3 Edge Passivation

SiliconPV Conference Proceedings
This work addresses the separation of tunnel-oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) host solar cells into half solar cells. It demonstrates the feasibility of achieving almost loss-free cell performance after edge passivation by the passivated edge ...

Enhancing CoFe Catalysts with V2CTX MXene‐Derived Materials for Anion Exchange Membrane Electrolyzers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
MXene dervied CoFe composites show increased initial Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) activity compared to the pure CoFe and MXene in an Anion Exchange Membrane device. Vanadium vacancies in the MXene plays a role in increased OER activity and hinders Fe leaching in the AEM device over using the pure V2C MXene as a support material for the CoFe ...
