Synergistic effect of multifunctional MXene-nanosheet and naphthoquinone sulfonate toward high-performance perovskite solar cells and modules
(Elsevier, 2023-08-28)
Interface defect passivation strategies play a vital role in the design of efficient, and stable perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Presently, we combine MXene-nanosheets with a 1,2-naphthoquinone-4-sulfonic acid sodium salt ...
Negative Transient Spikes in Halide Perovskites
(American Chemical Society, 2022-07-18)
The internal crossfire of ionic and electronic effects in perovskite devices forms a complex analysis problem that has not been fully solved yet. Specifically, halide photovoltaic perovskites show a photoinduced ionic ...
“Lock and Key” and “Induced-Fit” Host–Guest Models in Two Digold(I)-Based Metallotweezers
(American Chemical Society, 2022-04-01)
Two different metallotweezers, each with two pyrene–imidazolylidene–gold(I) arms, were used as hosts for a series of planar aromatic guests. The metallotweezer with a dibenzoacridinebis(alkynyl) spacer (1) orients the two ...
LiFePO4 particle conductive composite strategies for improving cathode rate capability
(Elsevier, 2015-05)
Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathodes are one of the most promising candidates to find application in hybrid electric vehicle energy storage system. For this reason advances in the performance of its theoretical capacity ...
The impedance of spiking neurons coupled by time-delayed interaction
(Wiley, 2022-04-01)
The synchronization of populations of interacting spiking neurons is a topic of interest for understanding the operation of the brain and for developing oscillatory-based biomimetic computation. The analysis of the operation ...
C60 Thin Films in Perovskite Solar Cells: Efficient or Limiting Charge Transport Layer?
(American Chemical Society, 2022-02-28)
In this work, we identify the importance of C60 and compact-TiO2 (cTiO2) as electron transport layers on the device performance of coevaporated n–i–p perovskite solar cells. We found (1) a synergetic effect between both ...
Experimental Characterization and Statistical Analysis of Water-Based Gold Nanofluids for Solar Applications: Optical Properties and Photothermal Conversion Efficiency
(Wiley, 2022-03-26)
Optimizing optical and photothermal properties of the solar nanofluids (NFs) to be used in direct absorption solar collectors is a key issue to maximize efficiencies in these collector types. This work both experimentally ...
Unveiling the Mechanistic Singularities of Caspases: A Computational Analysis of the Reaction Mechanism in Human Caspase-1
(American Chemical Society, 2023-04-07)
Caspases are cysteine proteases in charge of breaking a peptide bond next to an aspartate residue. Caspases constitute an important family of enzymes involved in cell death and inflammatory processes. A plethora of diseases, ...
Theory of Hysteresis in Halide Perovskites by Integration of the Equivalent Circuit
(American Chemical Society, 2022-07-28)
Perovskite solar cells show a number of internal electronic–ionic effects that produce hysteresis in the current–voltage curves and a dependence of the temporal response on the conditions of the previous stimulus applied ...
Tuning the selectivity of biomass oxidation over oxygen evolution on NiO-OH electrodes
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021)
Electrochemical reactions powered by renewable electricity are an important means of reducing the carbon footprint of large-scale chemical processes. Here, we investigate the efficient conversion of biomass-derived ...
