Marius Peters has published a perspective article "The ideal recyclable solar cell" co-authored by Christoph Brabec in Nature Reviews Chemistry. The work explores a timely and crucial question: how can we design photovoltaic technologies not only for maximum efficiency but also for true recyclabili...

Albert has been honored by the SAOT Executive Committee with a SAOT Student Award 2025 for his contribution: Beginner’s Guide to Visual Analysis of Perovskite and Organic Solar Cell Current Density–Voltage Characteristics. Current-voltage (JV) characteristics are the most important measurement for ...

During a recent joint workshop at Jinan University, generously hosted by Prof. Fei Guo and Prof. Ning Li—both i-MEET alumni and now faculty members at Jinan University and SCUT—an i-MEET delegation (Christoph, Karen, Larry, and several students) took part in lively discussions on organic and perovs...

We are delighted to announce that Christoph has been elected as a member of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities (Bayerische Akademie der Wissenschaften, BAdW). The Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities is one of Bavaria’s leading institutions for innovative basic research. It c...
