This example shows impressively how the global #FoodSystem and #EnergySystem are linked through raw materials and the petroindustry.

Great experience of interdisciplinary collaboration: last weekend, @ptrckflmm.bsky.social sent me article on the effect of the war in Iran on global fertilizer production. We went down the rabbit hole and discovered that supply chains for a range of materials beyond oil and gas are affected.

Von Computerchips bis Düngemittel: Weitere Auswirkungen des Iran-Kriegs könnten in Asien wie auch Europa bald spürbar sein. Im #PRIFblog beleuchten @ptrckflmm.bsky.social und @lukaswagner.bsky.social die globalen Verknüpfungen zwischen Petrochemie, Energieströmen und Ernährungssicherheit. ⬇️

I am very happy to share that I am now leading my own research group! 🎉🔬
My group at @UniMarburg will work on #SustainablyScalable #Perovskite #Photovoltaics (superPV group). ☀️⚡

I am grateful to #BMFTR for supporting me with a 5-year, ~2M€ grant in the #NanoMatFutur program.

Rohstoffe für die Solarenergie: Nachhaltige Photovoltaik beginnt im Labor Beim Solarboom werden Effizienz und Materialverbrauch zu entscheidenden Herausforderungen, wenn es darum geht, auf viele Terawatt hochzuskalieren.

🔬📣 #ScienceCommmunication is fun: I had the chance to write an article for #SpektrumDerWissenschaft (German version of #ScientificAmerican), discussing how to scale #photovoltaics #sustainably to a global #energy source www.spektrum.de/news/solaren...

On the @nanoge.org #PerFunPro conference, Clemens Baretzky and I showed our development of an ultra low-cost, #SMU system. We already implemented parallel #MPP tracker #ageing of >700 #perovskite solar cells and will be further expanding the system for high-throughput stability assessments.

Tuning Porosity in Laminated Carbon Electrodes via Solvent Treatment Enables >20% Efficient Perovskite Solar Cells Solvent treatment of laminated carbon electrodes reduces porosity, significantly lowering contact and sheet resistance.

#CPSC with PCE>20%! Hadi Mohammadzadeh @fraunhoferise.bsky.social et al. introduced a method do optimize #carbon electrode lamination for #perovskite solar cells. I'm very happy to being part of this work which paves the way for further improvements (coming soon). doi.org/10.1002/solr...

It was a pleasure chairing together with @nakitaknoel.bsky.social a session at the @nanoge.org #PerFunPro conference.
Thanks for great talks: @brunoehrler.bsky.social, Ivan Zaluzhnyy, Fatemeh Haddadi Barzoki, Tobias Schulz, Dilara Öz, @janoschsolar.bsky.social , Tomasz Marszalek, Maryam Choghaei.

Charge Extraction Multilayers Enable Positive-Intrinsic-Negative Perovskite Solar Cells with Carbon Electrodes Perovskite solar cells achieve high power conversion efficiencies but usually rely on vacuum-deposited metallic contacts, leading to high material costs for noble metals and stability issues for more reactive metals. Carbon-based materials offer a cost-effective and potentially more stable alternative. The vast majority of carbon-electrode PSCs use the negative-intrinsic-positive (n-i-p) or “hole-transport-layer-free” architectures. Here, we present a systematic study to assess the compatibility of “inverted”, p-i-n configuration PSC contact layers with carbon top electrodes. We identify incompatibilities between common electron transport layers and the carbon electrode deposition process and previously unobserved semiconducting properties in carbon electrodes with unique implications for charge extraction and electronic behavior. To overcome these issues, we introduce a double-layer atomic layer deposited tin oxide (SnO2) and Poly(2,3-dihydrothieno-1,4-dioxin)-poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS), yielding up to 16.1% PCE and a retained 94% performance after 500 h of outdoor aging. The study is a crucial step forward for printable, metal-electrode-free, and evaporation-free perovskite PV technologies.

5 years ago we started working on carbon electrodes for p-i-n devices. Little did we know how difficult it would turn out to be. But hey we did it 🤗 also found out that carbon electrodes are actually semiconducting
