Figure 1: Optical microphotograph of the Au/polymer admixture/Au LEC (surface cell configuration ... model is based on the well-understood electrochemical doping of conjugated polymers.
An example of zinc and copper being used to make a cell can be seen in the diagram below. The zinc is higher in the electrochemical series, so it pushes electrons towards the copper. \(Zn(s ...
The team’s new cell features a polymer electrolyte membrane and a porous layer, where carbon dioxide is generated in-situ and reacts at the cathode to form formate ions.
They presented their research in “Renewable hydrogen production: A techno-economic comparison of photo-electrochemical cells and photovoltaic-electrolysis,” which was recently published in the ...
The Electrochemical Energy Laboratory is set up to design and develop high performance materials for sustainable energy applications (mainly electrochemical systems such as batteries, supercapacitors, ...
The new cell achieved an efficiency that is reportedly in line with that of other GaAs PV devices, but can be produced at a lower cost thanks to the reuse of germanium. November 21, 2023 Emiliano ...
