Lead immobilization for environmentally sustainable perovskite solar cells

Michael Graetzel, Antonio Abate, Hui Zhang

Lead halide perovskites are promising semiconducting materials for solar energy harvesting. However, the presence of heavy-metal lead ions is problematic when considering potential harmful leakage into the environment from broken cells and also from a publ ...

Does Sharing Lead to Smarter Products? Managing Information Flows for Collective Servitization

Thomas Alois Weber

Peer-to-peer sharing induces persistent changes in product design. Besides bifurcating product durability, this adaptation increases the compatibility of collaborative use with rent extraction—from a producer’s viewpoint. For owners it decreases the commit ...

Mechanochemical synthesis of novel rutile-type high entropy fluorides for electrocatalysis

Seunghwa Lee, Kai Wang, Parvathy Anitha Sukkurji

Multicomponent rutile (P42/mnm) structured fluorides, containing 4 to 7 transition metals (Co, Cu, Mg, Ni, Zn, Mn, and Fe) in equiatomic ratios, were synthesized using a simple mechanochemical approach. The high entropy fluorides were characterized using d ...

Fighting Health Hazards in Lead Halide Perovskite Optoelectronic Devices with Transparent Phosphate Salts

László Forró, Endre Horvath, Xavier François Mettan, Márton Kollár, Pavao Roko Andricevic

Organic-inorganic lead halide perovskite (CH3NH3PbI3) solar cells have surpassed 25% power conversion efficiency, being ready for industrial-scale production of cheap photovoltaic (PV) panels. In this action, the major hurdle is its lead content, which in ...

Incommensurate crystal structure of PbHfO3

Alla Arakcheeva

Controversy in the description/identification of so-called intermediate phase(s) in PbHfO3, stable in the range similar to 420-480 K, has existed for a few decades. A synchrotron diffraction experiment on a partially detwinned crystal allowed the structure ...
