  2. 1. Electrochromism in Metal Oxide Thin Films : Towards long-term durability and materials rejuvenation

    Author : Rui-Tao Wen; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Agustín R. González-Elipe; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electrochromic; smart windows; long-term durability; degradation kinetics; ion trapping; de-trapping; materials rejuvenation; Engineering Science with specialization in Solid State Physics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Abstract : Electrochromic thin films can effectively regulate the visible and infrared light passing through a window, demonstrating great potential to save energy and offer a comfortable indoor environment in buildings. However, long-term durability is a big issue and the physics behind this is far from clear. READ MORE

  4. 2. Functionalization of polymer electrolytes for electrochromic windows

    Author : İlknur Bayrak Pehlivan; Gunnar A. Niklasson; Claes-Göran Granqvist; Michel Aegerter; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrochromism; Polymer electrolytes; PEI; LiTFSI; Nanoparticles; Ionic conductivity; Ion-pair relaxation; Near-infrared absorption; Engineering Science with specialization in Solid State Physics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Abstract : Saving energy in buildings is of great importance because about 30 to 40 % of the energy in the world is used in buildings. An electrochromic window (ECW), which makes it possible to regulate the inflow of visible light and solar energy into buildings, is a promising technology providing a reduction in energy consumption in buildings along with indoor comfort.

  5. 3. Shells and filament in flows

    Author : Vipin Agrawal; Dhrubaditya Mitra; Supriya Krishnamurthy; Gerhard Gompper; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chaos; Elastic filaments; Shells; Exosomes; Stokes flow; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

    Abstract : The motivation to study elastic structures such as filaments and shells stemmed from its application in the construction of tall buildings, bridges etc. Interest in this field has rekindled in the past decades due to growing interest in understanding biological materials and because of possible applications in nanoscience and medicine.
