The longevity and performance of perovskite solar cells (PSCs), essential for their commercial viability, are limited by the stability of their quasi-ohmic contacts, especially under elevated temperatures. Junsheng presents a pioneering approach to this challenge, introducing a polymer-acid-metal b...
Yicheng has developed machine learning model aimed at improving the stability of metal-halide perovskite solar cells. By employing spectral learning techniques, the team has made strides in predicting perovskite stability without the reliance on lengthy aging processes. With promising results achie...
As solar panels silently harness the sun's energy, behind the scenes, Artificial Intelligence is quietly ensuring their longevity and unwavering reliability.
Our "High-throughput characterisation and modelling for PV" team is at the forefront of research aiming to enhance the reliability of sol...
On sunny days, up to 60% of the electricity in Germany is produced by photovoltaics (PV). This is good news to fight climate change, but also entails problems such as the land use by large PV fields or the question of recycling. Addressing these issues requires to devise entirely new materials for ...
Researchers at i-MEET use hybrid (physics aware) artificial intelligence to learn more about photovoltaic materials from faster and simpler experiments. For example, we can obtain performance relevant aspects of microstructure by analysing simple absorption spectra.
In many cases, this helps us...
Jiyun has used fully automated SPINBOT platform for engineering solution-processed Perovskite thin films, addressing the persistent challenge of simultaneously optimizing processing parameters. SPINBOT employs unsupervised processing on hundreds of substrates, showcasing exceptional experimental co...
Larry, Marius, Vincent and Karen have explored multijunction devices and photon up-and-down conversion to enhance efficiency beyond single junction limits. Utilizing Bayesian Optimization in a simulation environment, our team predicts and optimizes the electrical performance of multi-junction archi...
The quest for the perfect material in photovoltaics is ongoing, with a focus on overcoming the limitations of traditional silicon-based modules. i-MEET team is leading the charge to establish organic photovoltaics (OPV) as a viable alternative. OPV modules, known for their flexibility and transpare...
Silicon solar panels have become a part of everyday life in Germany, providing us with green energy. But what happens to the solar cells and the valuable raw materials they contain when they reach the end of their service life? Currently, nearly 10,000 tons of decommissioned solar modules are proce...
NGSE is a global conference on solar energy organized by FAU and HI ERN, held annually in December, and a bi-monthly PhD-Postdoc series. NGSE 8, in collaboration with LBNL, takes place on December 12-14, 2023, in Erlangen, featuring a hybrid format. The focus is on "High-throughput Synthesis and AI...
