Thiazole Boron Difluoride Dyes with Large Stokes Shift, Solid State Emission and Room-Temperature Phosphorescence

Jieping Zhu, Wei Wang, Shuo Tong

The small Stokes shift and weak emission in the solid state are two main shortcomings associated with the boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) family of dyes. This study presents the design, synthesis and luminescent properties of boron difluoro complexes of 2-ar ...

Radiative cooling of carbon cluster anions C-2n+1(-) (n=3-5)

Eduardo Carrascosa Casado

Radiative cooling of carbon cluster anions C(2n+1)(-)C2n+1- (n = 3-5) is investigated using the cryogenic electrostatic ion storage ring DESIREE. Two different strategies are applied to infer infrared emission on slow (milliseconds to seconds) and ultraslo ...

Contributions to the contact resistivity in fired tunnel-oxide passivating contacts for crystalline silicon solar cells

Christophe Ballif, Franz-Josef Haug, Andrea Ingenito, Frank Meyer, Sofia Libraro

We investigate the contact resistivity of p-type passivating contacts for silicon solar cells. Our contact structures are compatible with firing, a rapid annealing process similar to the one used for sintering of the screen-printed metallisation in solar c ...
