Photoelectrochemical Demonstrator Device for Solar Hydrogen Generation (PECDEMO)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2014, Date de fin: 31 mars 2017,
To address the challenges of solar energy capture and storage in the form of a chemical fuel, we will develop a hybrid photoelectrochemical-photovoltaic (PEC-PV) tandem device for light-driven water splitting. This concept is based on a visible light-absorbing metal oxide photoelectrode, which is immersed in water and placed in front of a smaller-bandgap thin film PV cell. This tandem approach ens ...

NOVEL ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY SOLUTION PROCESSED NANOMATERIALS FOR PANCHROMATIC SOLAR CELLS (NANOMATCELL)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
Dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) is the leading technology of third-generation solution-processed solar cells with reported efficiencies in excess of 10%. However despite the huge efforts in the last two decades saturation effects are observed in their performance. Efforts so far have been concentrated towards engineering and fine-tuning of the dyes, the electrolytes and the interface of the dye t ...

Photogenerated Hydrogen by Organic Catalytic Systems (PHOCS)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2012, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2015,
Aim of the project “Photogenerated Hydrogen by Organic Catalytic Systems (PHOCS)” is the realization of a new-concept,photoelectrochemical system for hydrogen production, based on the hybrid organic/inorganic and organic/liquid interfaces. PHOCS takes the move from the recent demonstration of reduction/oxidation reactions taking place, under visible light and at zero bias, at the interface of an o ...

Sensitizer Activated Nanostructured Solar Cells (SANS)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2013,
Widespread uptake of inorganic semiconductor solar cells has been limited, with current solar cell arrays only producing arround 10 GW of the 15 TW (~0.06%) global energy demand, despite the terrestrial solar resource being 120,000 TW. The industry is growing at a cumulative rate of over 40% per annum, even with effects of the financial crisis. However, to contribute to global power this century, ...

Innovative Materials for Future Generation Excitonic Solar Cells (INNOVASOL)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2009, Date de fin: 31 mars 2012,
INNOVASOL aims to develop radically new nanostructured materials for photovoltaic (PV) excitonic solar cells (XSCs) really competitive with traditional energy sources. The main objective is to leapfrog current limitations of third-generation PV devices through a drastic improvement of the materials used for assembling XSCs. The first step is the substitution of the liquid electrolytes, currently u ...
