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.
The dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) challenges conventional photovoltaics with its potential for low-cost prodn. and its flexibility in terms of color and design. Transient absorption spectroscopy is widely used to unravel the working mechanism of DSCs. A ...
Some redox-active ionic liquids, organic amorphous solids containing electron-donating moieties, and conductive polymers can efficiently transport positive electrical charges. These hole-conducting media find increasing applications in unconventional solar ...
Titanium oxide due to its optical properties, such as high refractive index, transparency to visible light and photocatalytic properties is being used in a large number of devices such as micro-optical elements and solar cells. The fabrication of TiO2 micr ...
Using sun as the energy source, natural photosynthesis carries out a number of useful reactions such as oxidation of water to molecular oxygen and fixation of CO2 in the form of sugars. These are achieved through a series of light-induced multielectron-tra ...
The direct conversion of sun light to elec. power in mol. photoelectrochem. systems, aka Gratzel solar cells, is one of the promising "solar technologies" for utilization of abundant solar light as alternative energy source. Considering advantages of Gratz ...
A series of dyes based on a triphenylamine donor and a rhodanine acetic acid anchor/acceptor for solar cell application has been studied with regards to electron injection and recombination kinetics using femtosecond transient absorption. The series contai ...
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) with nanotubular TiO2 electrodes of varying thicknesses are compared to DSCs based on conventional nanoparticulate electrodes. Despite the higher degree of order in one-dimensional nanotubular electrodes, electron transpor ...
Naturally occurring photosynthetic systems in plants are supported by elaborate pathways of self-repair that limit the impact of photo-damage. Herein, we demonstrate a complex consisting of two recombinant proteins, phospholipids and a carbon nanotube that ...
Spin-dependent properties of nanomagnets and magnetic/nonmagnetic hybrid systems have gained a renewed interest after the discovery of spin caloric transport phenomena. To explore such properties in detail, advanced techniques need to be developed. In this ...
Perhaps the largest challenge for our global society is to find ways to replace the slowly but inevitably vanishing fossil fuel supplies by renewable resources and, at the same time, avoid negative effects from the current energy system on climate, environ ...
