Dissecting the photoacidity of spiropyran/merocyanine molecular switches in water

Cesare Berton

Photochemistry is a discipline that studies the interaction between light and matter with the scope to induce chemical transformations. The first conjugation between light and chemistry can be dated back to the lifespan of Giacomo Luigi Ciamician, who is c ...

Tuning the Solar Performance of Building Facades through Polymer 3D Printing: Toward Bespoke Thermo-Optical Properties

Stephen William Wasilewski

Facades are the primary interface controlling the flow of solar energy in buildings and affecting their energy balance and environmental impact. Recently, large-scale 3D printing (3DP) of translucent polymers has been explored as a technique for fabricatin ...

Molecular Tailoring of Pyridine Core-Based Hole Selective Layer for Lead Free Double Perovskite Solar Cells Fabrication

Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin

To solve the toxicity issues related to lead-based halide perovskitesolar cells, the lead-free double halide perovskite Cs2AgBiBr6 is proposed. However, reduced rate of charge transferin double perovskites affects optoelectronic performance. We designeda s ...

Pilot studies on optimizing land use, building density and solar electricity generation in dense urban settings

François Maréchal, Shanshan Hsieh

Previous studies have identified links between the urban form and the performance of urban energy systems. Land use and density are two important aspects of urban planning and design. This paper studies the relationship between these aspects and the perfor ...

Material constraints related to storage of future European renewable electricity surpluses with CO2 methanation

Vincent Moreau, Suren Erkman

The main challenges associated with a growing production of renewable electricity are intermittency and dispersion. Intermittency generates spikes in production, which need to be curtailed when exceeding consumption. Dispersion means electricity has to be ...
