Strong coloration of nanoporous tungsten oxides by in-vacuo lithiation for all-solid-state electrochromic devices

Andreas Schueler, Anna Krammer, Maxime Lagier, Olivia Valérie Charlotte Bouvard, Luc Burnier

Electrochromic windows allow for an improved management of solar heat gains in buildings and enhanced visual comfort of building users. All-solid-state electrochromic devices can be especially durable. During their fabrication lithium has to be inserted, p ...

Precise and accurate image-based measurements of optical material properties

Marjan Shahpaski

The appearance of objects is governed by how they reflect, transmit and absorb the light they receive. That, in turn, depends on the material's internal structure, surface structure, and viewing and illumination directions. Changes in those characteristics ...

Magnetic and optical properties in degenerated transition metal and Ga co-substituted ZnO nanocrystals

Reinis Ignatans

In order to study the influence of itinerant electrons on magnetic properties of transition metal substituted ZnO nanocrystals, nanopowders containing different amounts of Ga and fixed amounts of Fe, Ni and Mn ions were synthesized. The ions of different t ...

Indoor Light Enhanced Photocatalytic Ultra-Thin Films on Flexible Non-Heat Resistant Substrates Reducing Bacterial Infection Risks

Sami Rtimi

Photocatalytic antibacterial sol-gel coated substrates have been reported to kill bacteria under light or in the dark. These coatings showed non-uniform distribution, poor adhesion to the substrate and short effective lifetime as antibacterial surfaces. Th ...

Development and characterization of electrochromic oxide and ion conductor deposited by reactive magnetron sputtering

Andreas Schueler, Olivia Valérie Charlotte Bouvard, Djamel Eddine Mansour

In order to modulate the solar gains of a building, electrochromic windows can be used. To improve their durability, inorganic solid state electrolytes are considered. This work reports on the investigation of tungsten trioxide (WO3) and lithium phosphorou ...

Nanocrystalline Low-Refractive Magnesium Fluoride Films Deposited by Reactive Magnetron Sputtering: Optical and Structural Properties

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Paul Muralt, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, Stefan Mertin

In this work, we study MgF2 thin-film synthesis by reactive pulsed DC magnetron sputtering from a metallic magnesium target in a gas mixture of argon, oxygen, and carbon tetrafluoride (CF4). Nanocrystalline films on silicon and glass substrates with excell ...

Translucent load-bearing GFRP envelopes for daylighting and solar cell integration in building construction

Carlos Pascual Agullo

This project investigates the light transmittance of load-bearing glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) laminates with a view to two architectural applications: the daylighting of buildings through load-bearing translucent GFRP envelopes and encapsulation ...

Extreme light absorption in a necking-free monolayer of resonant-size nanoparticles for photoelectrochemical cells

Ali Dabirian

Semiconductor photoelectrodes for water oxidation that absorb visible light usually have poor electronic transport properties and small optical absorption coefficients near their absorption edge. Therefore, innovative designs that lead to significant optic ...

UV-intensity, temperature and dark-curing effects in cationic photo-polymerization of a cycloaliphatic epoxy resin

Véronique Michaud, Yves Leterrier, Basile Golaz

A difunctional cycloaliphatic epoxy monomer was cationically photo-polymerized in the presence of a diaryliodonium salt photoinitiator and an isopropyl thioxanthone photosensitizer at different temperatures and UV intensities. The photo-polymerization kine ...
