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.
A sustainable route to store the energy provided by the Sun, is to directly convert sunlight into molecular hydrogen using a semiconductor performing water photolysis. Hematite (α-Fe2O3) is promising for this application due to its ample abundance, chemica ...
The electrical behavior of Au/SiOx/n-GaAs Schottky structures has been studied using a statistical approach. II has been concluded that the obtained unusual electrical behavior is connected mainly with different Fermi-level pinning position and lateral mic ...
In the context of the diminishing fossil energy resources and global warming, much research is focused on sustainable energy sources. The research that is presented in this thesis falls in this category as it contributes to the development of a device that ...
Colloidal quantum dot (CQD) photovoltaics combine low-cost solution processability with quantum size-effect tunability to match absorption with the solar spectrum. Rapid recent advances in CQD photovoltaics have led to impressive 3.6% AM1.5 solar power con ...
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSC), introduced by O'Regan and Grätzel in 1991, are a low cost alternative to conventional silicon photovoltaic cells, the latter requiring extremely pure starting materials and sophisticated production procedures. DSC's, based ...
X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy is applied to Zr-based alloys ((Zr, x%Nb) with x ⩽ 1 wt.%) corroded in steam at 415 °C to resolve the niobium speciation in the metal and the oxide parts of their metal/oxide interface. By combining ...
A promising route to increase the performance of hematite (alpha-Fe2O3) photoelectrodes for solar hydrogen production through water-splitting is to use an extremely thin layer of this visible light absorber on a nanostructured scaffold. However, the typica ...
Due to the limiting amount of fossil fuel available and to the continuous growth of the world energy consumption, it becomes important to find alternative energy sources. Hydrogen produced by the photoelectrolysis of water is a perfect candidate as a clean ...
Given the limitations of the materials available for photoelectrochemical water splitting, a multiphoton (tandem) approach is required to convert solar energy into hydrogen efficiently and durably. Here we investigate a promising system consisting of a hem ...
