Retarding solid-state reactions enable efficient and stable all-inorganic perovskite solar cells and modules

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Zhaofu Fei, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Hiroyuki Kanda, Yong Ding, Bin Ding, Olga Syzgantseva, Shunlin Zhang, Cheng Liu

All-inorganic CsPbI3 perovskite solar cells (PSCs) with efficiencies exceeding 20% are ideal candidates for appli-cation in large-scale tandem solar cells. However, there are still two major obstacles hindering their scale-up: (i) the inhomogeneous solid-s ...

Dynamic CO2 sorption on MgO-based sorbent in the presence of CO and H2O at elevated pressures

Seongmin Jin, Gina Bang

The presence of gas species other than the target adsorbate in practical conditions causes complications in implementing a sorption-based process because of synergistic or detrimental effects on the sorption mechanism. MgO-based sorbents have attracted mas ...

Improved methodology for analysis and design of Molten Salt Reactors

Rodrigo Gonzalez Gonzaga De Oliveira

Molten Salt Reactors is a class of advanced reactors that is typically characterised by the presence of a molten inorganic salt of a fissile material as fuel. At the moment, this class of reactors is considered one of the promising options in the long run ...

Simulating Infiltration as a Sequence of Pinning and De-pinning Processes

Andreas Mortensen, William Craig Carter

The infiltration of a non-wetting liquid, such as molten metal, into a porous solid, such as a ceramic preform, is influenced by the wetting angle of the liquid on the solid. The link between local wetting and the minimum pressure required for initiation o ...

Nanocapillary confinement of imidazolium based ionic liquids

Aleksandra Radenovic, Sanjin Marion, Sebastian James Davis, Zeng-Qiang Wu

Room temperature ionic liquids are salts which are molten at or around room temperature without any added solvent or solution. In bulk they exhibit glass like dependence of conductivity with temperature as well as coupling of structural and transport prope ...

An Efficient Approach to Fabricate Air-Stable Perovskite Solar Cells via Addition of a Self-Polymerizing Ionic Liquid

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Yi Zhang, Paul Joseph Dyson, Rosario Scopelliti, Zhaofu Fei, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Cristina Roldán Carmona, Valentin Ianis Emmanuel Queloz, Zhangjun Huang, Nikita Drigo, Rui Xia

Despite the excellent photovoltaic properties achieved by perovskite solar cells at the laboratory scale, hybrid perovskites decompose in the presence of air, especially at high temperatures and in humid environments. Consequently, high-efficiency perovski ...

Breed-and-burn fuel cycle in molten salt reactors

Andreas Pautz, Jiri Krepel, Boris Aviv Hombourger

The operation of a reactor on an open but self-sustainable cycle without actinide separation is known as breed-and-burn. It has mostly been envisioned for use in solid-fueled fast-spectrum reactors such as sodium-cooled fast reactors. In this paper the app ...
