Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) constitute a novel class of hybrid organic-inorganic solar cells. At the heart of the device is a mesoporous film of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles, which are coated with a monolayer of dye sensitive to the visible ...
This paper deals with asymmetrical multi-level inverters. The investigated topologies consist of series connected cells with different input voltages. Some combinations of different input voltages have been proposed to improve the converter resolution. Thi ...
We report on the effect of substituting the two tetrabutyl ammonium counter ions of the standard N719 dye by sodium ions on the performance and stability of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). The disodium analogue of N719 in conjunction with a non-volatile ...
The aim of this work was to develop new, organic dyes, capable of harvesting photons in the red to near-IR region of the spectrum. A series of squaraine and tricarbocyanine dyes were produced and characterised and their optical and redox properties studied ...
We present a laser scribing system for mid-size photovoltaic modules (up to 410 × 520 mm2) implementing a movable diode-pumped solid state laser. In this configuration, the heavy large-area photovoltaic module does not need to be displaced, allowing for fa ...
Although in principle very promising, photovoltaic technology has so far failed to deliver robust high efficiency modules at affordable prices. Despite considerable research, high efficiency silicon based cells remain expensive, while the more recent organ ...
Cerium-doped lithium niobate crystals are tested for holographic recording. A photochromic effect is observed in crystals doped with cerium and manganese. But two-center recording in the sample is not as effective as in iron and manganese doubly doped crys ...
A new Ru(II) complex, Bu4N [ruthenium (4-carboxylic acid-4'-carboxylate-2,2'-bipyridine)(4,4'-di(2-(3,6-dimethoxyphenyl)ethenyl)-2,2'-bipyridine)(NCS)2] (N945H), was synthesized and characterized by anal., spectroscopic, and electrochem. techniques. The ab ...
The investigated asymmetrical multilevel inverters consist of series-connected inverter cells with different characteristics. They allow to obtain a very good output-voltage resolution. The feeding of the cells is a delicate point which can increase the in ...
Le cursus universitaire des étudiants de l'EPFL comprend, outre des cours magistraux, des travaux dirigés et des ravaux pratiques, la réalisation de projets de semestre et de diplômes. Les étudiants ont ainsi l'occasion, au travers de ces projets, soit de ...
