The integration of shear-thickening fluids (STFs) into composite structures has been investigated with the aim of tuning part stiffness and damping capacity under dynamic deformation. Results from oscillatory rheological measurements for a STF based on con ...
Production volume of PV modules increases at > 35% per year, but one is yet far from making a global impact on energy supply. One of the obstacles is given by the present high production costs of PV modules. A possibility to reduce costs are thin-film PV m ...
This thesis investigates amorphous (a-Si:H) and microcrystalline (μc-Si:H) solar cells deposited by very high frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (VHF-PECVD) in the n-i-p or substrate configuration. It focuses on processes that allow the us ...
1,6-Dithiophenol-substituted perylene organic sensitizer 1 was synthesized, and its photovoltaic properties in dye-sensitized solar cells were assessed. When anchored onto TiO2 film, the dye exhibits an unprecedented incident monochromatic photon-to-curren ...
The ultra-light photovoltaic sandwich structure is a new multifunctional structure concept enabling weight and thus energy to be saved in high-tech solutions such as solar cars, solar planes or satellites. The novelty of this approach is to use solar cells ...
