  1. 21. Nanoplasmonics for solar cells

    Author : Viktoria Gusak; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; enhanced near-field; adsorption; titanium dioxide; Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance; amorphous hydrogenated Silicon; diffusion; Langmuir kinetics; Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell; plasmonic nanoparticle; mesoporous material; diffusion-front model;

    Abstract : The main source of our energy system, the fossil fuels, will eventually be depleted and also pose environmental and climate hazards. There is thus a need for alternative, renewable energy sources. Solar (photovoltaic) cells will play an important role as one of them. READ MORE

  2. 22. Neutron spectroscopy studies of vibrational and diffusional dynamics in organometal halide and oxyhydride perovskites

    Author : Rasmus Lavén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Metal halide perovskites; perovskites; phonons; quasielastic neutron scattering; inelastic neutron scattering; oxyhydrides; hydrogen dynamics.; diffusion;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with inelastic and quasielastic neutron scattering studies on the dynamical properties of the organometal halide perovskite system MA1-xFAxPbI3 (MA = methylammonium; FA = formamidinium) and of the layered perovskite-type oxyhydride SrVO2H. These materials systems are of high interest for their excellent photovoltaic performance (MA1-xFAxPbI3) and hydride-ion conductivity (SrVO2H) and concomitant promise for various technological devices; however, the local structure and dynamics underpinning these materials properties remain unclear.

  3. 23. Interrogating Diffusional Mass and Charge Transport in Catalytic Metal-Organic Frameworks

    Author : Ben A. Johnson; Sascha Ott; Nicolas Plumeré; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; metal-organic frameworks; molecular catalysis; reaction-diffusion; electrochemistry; water oxidation; charge transport;

    Abstract : Molecular catalysts are efficient and selective for the electrochemical conversion of small molecules for energy conversion. Application of molecular species in a large-scale industrial setting requires stabilization in a heterogeneous support material. READ MORE

  4. 24. Extraction of Metal Values : Thermodynamics of Electrolyte Solutions and Molten Salts Extraction Process

    Author : Xinlei Ge; Seshadri Seetharaman; Katsunori Yamaguchi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrolyte solutions; activity coefficient; osmotic coefficient; freezing point depression; boiling point elevation; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : Over the past centuries, a number of process routes for extraction of metal values from an ore or other resources have been developed. These can generally be classifiedinto pyrometallurgical, hydrometallurgical or electrometallurgical routes. READ MORE

  5. 25. Conducting Polymers Containing In-Chain Metal Centres : Electropolymerisation and Charge Transport

    Author : Johan Hjelm; Anders Hagfeldt; Emad Mukhtar; Robert Forster; A. R. Hillman; Uppsala universitet; []

    Abstract : Conjugated polymers that exhibit high electronic conductivities play key roles in the emerging field of molecular electronics. In particular, linking metal centres with useful electrochemical, photophysical, or catalytic properties to the backbone, or within the polymer chain itself, is a topic which has attracted a significant amount of interest lately.
