Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSC) are a new class of molecular photovoltaics that mimics the natural photosynthesis, for the direct conversion of sunlight into electricity. A typical DSC is a sandwich of a dye sensitized nanoparticle TiO2 film and a catalys ...
In this paper we propose CMOS-compatible Memristive-Biosensors as label-free, highly sensitive sensors for in-air detection of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) molecules. The memristive behavior of the fabricated devices is strongly affec ...
Two-dimensional (2D) materials are a new type of materials under intense study because of their interesting physical properties and wide range of potential applications from nanoelectronics to sensing and photonics. Monolayers of semiconducting transition ...
With growing concerns on future energy supplies, solar energy appears as an energy source whose potential remains to be tapped at a large scale. In the last two decades, dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) have been considered as a competitive means to conve ...
Mesoscopic sensitized solar cells are one of the most promising third-generation photovoltaic technologies. Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs), imitating the photosynthesis of green plants, were the first photovoltaic devices to utilize a mesoscopic heteroj ...
Polycrystalline zinc oxide (ZnO) films, prepared by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition are investigated in this thesis. ZnO belongs to the class of transparent conductive oxide materials, as it is transparent to light from the visible to the near-infra ...
Tools that assess the limitations of dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) made with new materials are critical for progress. Measuring the transient electrical signals (voltage or current) after optically perturbing a DSSC is an approach which can give infor ...
The Hall Effect sensors are one of the most commonly used sensing technologies today. They are employed in many applications for direct magnetic field sensing and serve a multitude of low power applications within automotive and industrial electronics as c ...
Increasing the conductivity of polycrystalline zinc oxide films without impacting the transparency is a key aspect in the race to find affordable and high quality material as replacement of indium-containing oxides. Usually, ZnO film conductivity is provid ...
In this viewpoint we discuss the contributions from John S. Wilkes and Michael J. Zaworotko concerning the discovery of stable ionic liquids (ILs) and their accompanying structural studies (J. Chem. Soc., Chem. Commun., 1992, 965) and Robin D. Rogers and J ...
