Hydrogen sulphate-based ionic liquid-assisted electro-polymerization of PEDOT catalyst material for high-efficiency photoelectrochemical solar cells

Photoelectrochemical Solar Cells based on Polyterthiophenes Containing Porphyrins using Ionic Liquid Electrolyte

Surfactant ionic liquid-based microemulsions for polymerization.

Surfactants based on imidazolium ionic liquids (ILs), including polymerizable surfactant ILs, have been synthesized and used to stabilize polymerizable microemulsions useful for producing polymer nanoparticles, gels, and open-cell porous materials.

Ionic Liquid Based Electrolytes for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

1.1 New type of solar cell: dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) The rising price of fossil fuels, together with their rapid depletion and the pollution caused by their combustion, is forcing us to find sources of clean renewable energy. Fortunately, the supply of energy from the sun to the earth is gigantic, i.e., 3 × 1024 joule a year or about ten thousand times more than what mankind consumes ...

Prins-type polymerization using ionic liquid hydrogen fluoride salts.

We successfully carried out Prins-type polymerization for the first time to prepare 4-fluorinated tetrahydropyran-containing polymers in a highly stereoselective manner.

Laser-assisted Shunt Removal on High-efficiency Silicon Solar Cells

Development of all-back-contact (ABC) silicon solar cells at the Australian National University (ANU), as part of a collaboration between Trina Solar and the Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore (SERIS), is progressing, and 22.6% efficient ABC cells, based on the aperture-area of 13 cm 2 that excludes busbars, were recently fabricated at ANU. When measured using the 16 cm 2 aperture-are...
