Innovative Solution for Building Integrated Photovoltaics
Graph Chatbot
Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Many surface properties of materials can be tailored by a proper physical patterning. Such patterned surfaces, commonly fabricated by wafer-based techniques, have been widely exploited for light trapping in advanced photovoltaic systems, for tailoring the ...
In the case of high photovoltaic (PV) penetration into the electricity grid, the energy produced by a PV system that is effectively used (useful energy) depends on the energy yield and on how this energy is managed to avoid detrimental effects occurring at ...
With the “Energy Strategy 2050”, Switzerland is planning to gradually withdraw from the use of nuclear energy and consequently integrate a larger share of renewables sources. Among all types of renewable sources, photovoltaic systems are ideally suited for ...
Phthalocyanines (Pcs) are used as sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) because of their stability and intense absorption in the red and near-IR regions. Impressive progress has been made in photovoltaic efficiencies by introduction of bulky pe ...
In the 3D-modelling universe, the Level of Detail has a crucial role, as it is the case to assess the PV potential in urban environments using this kind of models. According to the CityGML standards, there are five levels of detail, going from the footprin ...
Most of the existing solutions for Building Integrated PV (BIPV) are based on conventional crystalline Silicon (c-Si) module architectures (glass-glass or glass-backsheet) exhibiting a relatively high weight (12-20 kg/m2). We are working on the development ...
In this work, we manufacture lightweight (5 kg/m2) photovoltaic (PV) mini-modules for building integration replacing conventional glass sheets by a composite sandwich backsheet and a polymeric frontsheet. Our test devices are subjected to hail tests accor ...
Uncovering the precise effect of the conjugated polymer chain length on the semiconducting properties in thin-film devices is confounded by the step-growth polymerization techniques typically used. Here, we use preparatory size exclusion chromatography to ...
Preventing the permeation of reactive molecules into electronic devices or photovoltaic modules is of great importance to ensure their life span and reliability. This work is focused on the formation of highly functioning barrier films based on nanocrystal ...
Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite solar cells are a topic of increasing interest, as in a short time span they are able to lead in the third generation photovoltaics. Organohalide perovskites possess exceptional optoelectronic and physical properties, th ...
