Year: 2021

Dr. Olga Kasian, research associate and head of the junior research group "Material Transformations in Electrocatalysis" at HI-ERN and Helmholtzcenter Berlin (HZB), has joined i-MEET as University Professor of Materials for Electrochemical Energy Conversion. Welcome!

Many thanks to our undergraduates, graduate students, staff, and group leaders for their fantastic accomplishments in 2020. The year 2020 was dominated by the Corona crisis. I would like to thank everyone who worked tirelessly and meticulously to ensure rigorous implementation of Corona policies, d...

Jerrit discusses the vision of Materials Acceleration Platforms and AMANDA and shows the advantages of an automated and integrated system. As an example, PM6:Y6 bulk-heterojunction system was optimized in air and achieved efficiencies for ambient atmosphere processing of up to 13.7% under AM1.5 ill...

Osbel, who finished his thesis last summer in i-MEET, obtained the "EXTRAORDINARY AWARD OF DOCTORATE in the Branch of Sciences" for the 2019/2020 Doctoral School call of Universitat Jaume I of Castelló.The thesis was titled "Hysteresis and Capacitive Features of Perovskite Solar Cells" and supervis...

Within the last five years André worked on developing the fundamental imaging techniques allowing to identify the vertical position of a defect in a thin film solar cell. Most importantly, Andre demonstrated that his methodology can uniquely assign a defect to a specific layer of a solar cell, and ...

In addition to basic research, field application is a major cornerstone in research activity. One very special project carried out in collaboration with Energie Campus Nürnberg and ZAE is the Zeppelin. It was launched as a student project and is intended to monitor solar parks in the future using i...

Thanks to our colleagues Julian and Vanessa, today we can enjoy thisinteresting video clip. "Let's "drain" our sun!" is a video that waspresented on the WW-internal “Science Slam” on this year's digitalSommerfest. The main topic of the video is transparent solarcells or selective absorbers and thei...

FAU is involved with two projects in the FAIRmat project, which was approved on Friday, 2 July 2021 by the Joint Science Conference (GWK) in a multi-stage competition of the National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI). The project will receive funding to build an infrastructure that makes it possi...

On July 1st our annual High Throughput PV Summer Seminar took place. This time the seminar was held digital. The group leaders highlighted challenges and achievements in the high-throughput research at HIERN, i-MEET and ZAE this year. The program of the workshop is listed below: 15:00 Lectur...

Fu and Hans from the SFF are taking perovskite processing to the next level. After having demonstrated that printed Carbon electrodes are the most interesting alternative to evaporated or sputtered top electrodes, Fu optimized the perovskite layer and was able to align the interfaces between the ab...
