Writing in Energies, a team of scientists from Poland have collaborated on a paper analyzing the thermal comfort of so-called “smart” building compared to traditional buildings.
A team of chemists from Kaunas University of Technology (KTU) in Lithuania, the creators of several revolutionary innovations in the solar energy field, suggested yet another solution to boost the performance and stability of perovskite solar elements.
In a paper recently published in the open-access journal ACS Applied Energy Materials, researchers studied the usage of polymeric films of polyethylenimine (PEI) for interfacial enhancement of electron-selective contacts. The modification of PEI increased the performance of conventional highly efficient heterojunction solar cells.
The way that leaves transport solar energy over relatively long distances before using it to power chemical reactions can be mimicked by a comparatively new type of semiconductor that is stacked on top of a mirror-like structure. The method might one day increase the effectiveness of solar cells.
A paper recently published in the journal Trends in Food Science & Technology reviewed the use of ultrasound food processing technology to regulate the food ingredient interactions in protein-based food matrices...
In a pre-proof article posted in Materials & Designs, researchers quantified the extensional characteristics of battery electrode slurries by employing a miniature extensional rheometer. The novel technique aided the authors in comprehending the slurry structure and optimizing the process conditions to synthesize electrode coatings with the appropriate microstructure.
Geothermal energy has received significant attention as a renewable energy source. Now, a new paper published in Energies authored by scientists from University of Naples Federico II has reviewed the current body of research to ask how this abundant natural energy resource can be better exploited.
Superconductors, remarkable substances whose resistance drops below a specific temperature, hold great potential for supplying the world’s expanding energy needs.
In a paper recently published in the journal ACS Energy Letters, researchers utilized copper(I) thiocyanate (CuSCN) in order to create a hole transport layer (HTL) for various inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs) and organic solar cells (OSCs). It was determined that the inverted PSCs with doped chlorine had superior performance compared to those with pristine CuSCN.
A thermostat that predictively controls the indoor climate and thereby improves energy efficiency and comfort – Empa researchers Felix Bünning and Benjamin Huber came up with this idea while working in Empa's Urban Energy Systems lab.
