PROVIDENCE, R.I. [Brown University] A research team from Brown University has made a major step toward improving the long-term reliability of perovskite solar cells, an emerging clean energy technology. In a study to be published on Friday, May 7 in the journal
Science, the team demonstrates a molecular glue that keeps a key interface inside cells from degrading. The treatment dramatically increases cells stability and reliability over time, while also improving the efficiency with which they convert sunlight into electricity.
A Silver Lining for Extreme Electronics
Tomorrow’s cutting-edge technology will need electronics that can tolerate extreme conditions. That’s why a group of researchers led by Michigan State University’s Jason Nicholas is building stronger circuits today.
Nicholas and his team have developed more heat resilient silver circuitry with an assist from nickel. The team described the work, which was funded by the U.S. Department of Energy Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Program, on April 15 in the journal Scripta Materialia.
The types of devices that the MSU team is working to benefit next-generation fuel cells, high-temperature semiconductors and solid oxide electrolysis cells could have applications in the auto, energy and aerospace industries.
