Surface passivation and functionalisation for mass photometry
Suliana Manley, Jenny Sülzle, Laila Abdelaziz Abdelmoniem Elfeky
Interferometric scattering (iSCAT) microscopy enables the label-free observation of biomolecules. Consequently, single-particle imaging and tracking with the iSCAT-based method known as mass photometry (MP) is a growing area of study. However, establishing ...
Wiley2024An Advanced Alkaline Al-Air Fuel Cell Using L-Ascorbic Acid Interface Layer upon Al Anode via Gradient Anti-corrosion
Al metal is considered as an excellent anode material for metal-air fuel cells thanks to the advantages in terms of capacity and energy density. However, the anodic parasitic corrosion has brought great obstacles to the performance breakthrough of Al-air f ...
AMER CHEMICAL SOC2023A colloidal aqueous electrolyte modulated by oleic acid for durable zinc metal anode
Kangning Zhao, Xu Zhang, Di Yang
Continuous dendrites growth, as well as corrosion and side reactions of Zn metal anode seriously hinder the development of aqueous zinc ion batteries. To address these issues, oleic acid (OA) is dispersed into a 2 M ZnSO4 solution to form a novel colloidal ...
ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA2023Highly Efficient and Air-Stable Inorganic Perovskite Solar Cells Enabled by Polylactic Acid Modification
Inorganic perovskite solar cells (PSCs) suffer from serious carrier recombination and open-circuit voltage loss because of surface defects and unfavorable energy level alignment. Herein, a polylactic acid (PLA) modification approach to improve the performa ...
WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH2023Characterization and Development of Fired Passivating Contacts for Silicon Solar Cells
One of the key elements to improve mainstream crystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cell performance is surface passivation, which is at the center of the ongoing transition from cells with direct silicon-metal contacts to full area passivating contacts. In the ...
EPFL2022Terbium-Doped and Dual-Passivated gamma-CsPb(I1-xBrx)(3) Inorganic Perovskite Solar Cells with Improved Air Thermal Stability and High Efficiency
Realizing photoactive and thermodynamically stable all-inorganic perovskite solar cells (PSCs) remains a challenging task within halide perovskite photovoltaic (PV) research. Here, a dual strategy for realizing efficient inorganic mixed halide perovskite P ...
WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH2022Modeling Current Transients in a Reciprocal Motion Tribocorrosion Experiment
Tribocorrosion of passivating metals is a dynamic phenomenon causing degradation of materials by a combination of mechanical wear and electrochemical dissolution. The mechanical action typically produces a local removal of particles, metal as well as oxide ...
ELECTROCHEMICAL SOC INC2021A Crevice Corrosion Model for Biomedical Trunnion Geometries and Surfaces Feature
Stefano Mischler, Angela Bermudez Castañeda
Modular hip joint implants were introduced in arthroplasty medical procedures because they facilitate the tailoring of patients’ anatomy, the use of different materials in one single configuration, as well as medical revision. However, in certain cases, su ...
2021Surface Reconstruction Engineering with Synergistic Effect of Mixed‐Salt Passivation Treatment toward Efficient and Stable Perovskite Solar Cells
Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Yeonju Kim, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Filippo de Angelis, Hui-Seon Kim, Bowen Yang, Jiajia Suo
Surface passivation treatment is a widely used strategy to resolve trap-mediated nonradiative recombination toward high-efficiency metal-halide perovskite photovoltaics. However, a lack of passivation with mixture treatment has been investigated, as well a ...
