  1. 16. X-ray free-electron laser based methods for structural and ultrafast dynamics studies of a photosynthetic reaction centre

    Författare :David Arnlund; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; WAXS; wide-angle x-ray scattering; XFEL; x-ray free-electron laser; reaction center; structural biology; ultrafast dynamics;

    Sammanfattning : Life on earth is fuelled by the energy of sunlight, which must first be captured and converted into a chemical energy form useful to the cell. This process is known as photosynthesis and the major pathway of this energy conversion is via photosynthetic reaction centres. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Alternative Redox Couples for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

    Författare :Sandra Feldt; Anders Hagfeldt; Gerrit Boschloo; Petra Cameron; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; redox mediator; triphenylamine; cobalt; ferrocene; titanium dioxide; regeneration; recombination; Physical Chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) convert sunlight to electricity at a low cost. In the DSC, a dye anchored to a mesoporous TiO2 semiconductor is responsible for capturing the sunlight. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Photophysics and Photochemistry of Iron Carbene Complexes

    Författare :Linnea Lindh; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tidsupplöst spektroskopi; täthetsfunktionalteori; järn-komplex; färgämne; grätzelsolcell; fotokatalys; elektronöverföringsreaktion; time-resolved spectroscopy; density functional theory; earth-abundant; iron-complex; photosensitiser; dye-sensitised solar cell; photocatalysis; electron transfer;

    Sammanfattning : Nature captures sunlight via light-absorbing molecules.Similarly, photosensitisers are used in applications of solar cells and artificial photosynthesis to absorb sunlight, and transfer the excited electron. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Life of Excitons in Artificial Photosynthetic Antennas

    Författare :Johan Andersson; Kemisk fysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Zn-porphyrin; Osmium; Ruthenium; Polypyridine; Inter Ligand Energy Transfer; Inter System Crossing; Excited state dynamics; Transition metal complexes; Photosynthetic Antennas; Solar energy conversion; Artificial photosynthesis; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi; Transient Absorption Anisotropy.; Reaction Center; Dendrimer; Energy Transfer;

    Sammanfattning : Due to the predicted energy crisis when fossil fuels will be exhausted it is important to search for alternative energy sources. Utilizing sunlight via artificial photosynthesis is an interesting possibility. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Light-Induced Routes to Sustainable Biocrudes for Fuels and Lubricant Oils

    Författare :Leandro Cid Gomes; Henrik Ottosson; Norbert Hoffmann; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Aviation fuels; triplet sensitization; photoacid; renewable energy; photochemistry; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Fossil-based hydrocarbons are at present the ideal compounds for jet fuels and lubricant oils, so their replacement by novel technologies is not easy. Instead, sustainable routes to hydrocarbons, such as sunlight-driven processes, are desired to reduce the environmental impact by the transport sector. LÄS MER
