Gallium nitride or silicon-based crystals discovered in LEDs & other electronics need coaxing in order to obtain their perfect alignments and shapes.
Organic solar cells comprise of materials that are cheaper, but they are less efficient in transforming sunlight to electricity than standard solar cells.
A team of scientists at KIT have obtained three-dimensional insights into the interior of crystals by employing non-destructive imaging methods. They have established the vital data about line-shaped defects that immensely influence the deformation behavior of crystals.
Yuki Arakawa, Assistant Professor at Toyohashi University of Technology, has headed a research team to successfully liquid-crystallize π-conjugated rod-like molecules including alkylthio groups comprising sulfur.
Scientists at the Department of Material Sciences, Lomonosov MSU, have described the manner in which the battery efficiency and structure of created films are influenced when the ratio of components that form light-absorbing layer of a perovskite solar cell is altered. The outcomes of the research have been reported in the Journal of Physical Chemistry C.
A research team from MIPT, Skoltech, and Dukhov Research Institute of Automatics, headed by ArtemOganov, employed a machine learning technique for modeling the behavior of uranium and aluminum in the crystalline and liquid phases at various pressures and temperatures.
As part of the race to replace silicon in low-cost solar cells, semiconductors called metal halide perovskites are favored as they can be solution-processed into thin films with exceptional photovoltaic efficiency.
Scientists from the NYU Tandon School of Engineering have adopted an innovative technique for analyzing the formation of methane hydrate from water and methane. The technique has enabled the scientists to rapidly and very efficiently investigate the individual steps in the formation process.
A light-responsive crystalline material capable of overcoming challenges encountered in earlier studies has been developed by researchers at Kyoto University’s Institute for Integrated Cell-Material Sciences (iCeMS) and the University of Tokyo.
“Smart” materials capable of changing color in response to a mechanical stimulus have a wide variety of applications such as producing pressure-sensitive sensors and packaging that can identify tampering.
