Investigating the photochemistry and photophysics of perovskites and other printable photovoltaics

[RSC Energy Journals @RSC_Energy]

Check out this Perspective in #EESJournal on the circular economy for perovskite solar cells – drivers, progress and challenges by Rhys G. Charles, Matthew L. Davies @mldavies04 @Photochem_SU et al. ➡ https://t.co/GXE8bAawhU

☀♻ To ensure sustainability, we must ensure that #perovskite solar cells are designed for a #CircularEconomy from the get-go.

🔎So says a recent paper in a @RoySocChem journal by @DrRhysCharles, Alex Doolin, & @mldavies04

[Matthew Lloyd Davies @mldavies04]

Had the incredible pleasure of visiting @CINVESTAVMERIDA to discuss the work of @info_specific and @Photochem_SU - great to see the research into emerging energy technologies and the ambition to use natural and recycled materials wherever possible!

[Matthew Lloyd Davies @mldavies04]

We have an open PhD position @info_specific / @SwanseaUni to study the photochemistry of perovskite materials for solar cells - characterisation will help us make more sustainable interventions for perovskite solar cells! Details below -

Over at SPECIFIC, we love a good #FluorescenceFriday pic and this one is a beauty! Thanks @Photochem_SU

This red emission is methylammonium lead tri-iodide, a commonly used #perovskite in high performance #solarcells

😍Love this awesome image @ChemCommun from 2019.

Our researchers used organic dyes to highlight 'space' within #perovskite devices which could lead to higher performance.
