Nuevo récord de eficiencia en celdas solares de óxido de titanio

Investigadores de IMDEA Materiales, de la Universidad de La Rioja y de la Universidad de Alicante han logrado el récord de eficiencia energética en celdas solares basadas en óxido de titanio, como alternativa a las convencionales basadas en silicio. La eficiencia es del 8,75%, la más alta obtenida

First Year Assessment of Yunfu Ou entitle «Understanding interlaminar toughening mechamisms in structural carbon fiber/epoxy composites interleaved with CNT veils» – En la Sala de Seminarios a las 12:00 pm

ABSTRACT: The susceptibility to delamination is one of the main concerns in fiber reinforced polymer composites (FRPs), while carbon nanotubes (CNT) carry the promise of enhancing this poor out-of-plane mechanical performance. This work reviews the progress to date towards methods of

Seminario del Dr. Martin Sjödin titulado “Rational Design of Conducting Redox Polymers for Electrical Energy Storage” – A las 12:30 pm en la Sala de Seminarios

Abstract Conducting redox polymers (CRPs) are composed of a conducting polymer (CP) backbone and redox active functional groups (RGs) and they provide an attractive option as organic matter based electrical energy storage materials. The CP backbone renders the material conductive and, due to the
