Experimental Determination of Optical and Thermal Properties of Semi-transparent Photovoltaic Modules Based on Dye-sensitized Solar Cells

Josef Andreas Schuler, Olivia Valérie Charlotte Bouvard, Sara Vanzo

The demand for energy efficiency of buildings and on-site electricity production is rising. Building integrated photovoltaic can provide a part of the electricity demand. Many studies are related to the module efficiency. However, architectural integration ...

Light trapping in hematite-coated transparent particles for solar fuel generation

Ali Dabirian

Hematite (alpha-Fe2O3), due to its abundance and low-cost, is an attractive compound for photoelectrochemical splitting of water to produce hydrogen. However, one major obstacle preventing hematite from achieving the target efficiencies comprises its signi ...

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 ...

Measurements of Submicron Aerosols at the California-Mexico Border during the Cal-Mex 2010 Field Campaign

Satoshi Takahama

We present measurements of submicron aerosols in Tijuana, Mexico during the Cal-Mex 2010 field campaign. A suite of aerosol instrumentations were deployed, including a hygroscopic-volatility tandem differential mobility analyzer (HV-TDMA), aerosol particle ...

Optical microscopy for imaging through scattering media

Xin Yang

Optical microscopy has been widely used in the life sciences and biological research for several decades. It possesses many advantages over x-ray radiography, computed tomography, ultrasound imaging and magnetic resonance imaging, in terms of being low cos ...

Switchable Selective Absorber Coatings for Overheating Protection of Solar Thermal Collectors

Antonio Paone

Overheating is a common problem both with the use of active and passive solar energy in solar thermal energy systems and in highly glazed buildings. In solar thermal collectors, the elevated temperatures occurring during stagnation result in reduced lifeti ...
