Fullerene Modifiers Boost Organic Photovoltaics Efficiency
Researchers demonstrate that a nanometer thin fullerene interfacial layer can effectively improve the organic-metal oxide heterojunction of inverted OPV cells.
Photoprotection or Photodamage? An Old But Unsolved Debate About Melanin
Over the past decade, melanin pigments and their subunits have attracted increasing interest as soft biocompatible functional materials with antioxidant properties for engineering high performance, low impact biocompatible optoelectronic devices, such as memory...
Grasping Our Growing Gigatonne CO2 Challenge
Prof. Geoffrey Ozin discusses our growing gigatonne CO2 challenge, and how we must now work together to solve it.
The war against climate change: have we done enough?
Opinion: We can’t have a clean-energy revolution without molecules, polymers and materials. But what have we really done to help win the war against climate change?
Sungas Instead of Syngas
Hydrogen and carbon monoxide gas (sungas) is generated in a solar thermal electrochemical process (STEP) from water and carbon dioxide.
Heatproof roof can cool your house for free
Researchers at the University of Technology in Sydney have developed a new material that can keep roofs cooler than the air above them, even in direct sunlight.
