New Study Unveils Ethanol-based Solution for Dense and Uniform Perovskite Thin Film

Their findings have been published in the August 2022 issue of Nature Energy.

New Study Unveils Ethanol-based Solution for Dense and Uniform Perovskite Thin Film

Abstract The use of non-toxic or less-toxic solvents in the mass production of solution-processed perovskite solar cells is essential. However, halide perovskites are generally not completely soluble in most non-toxic solvents. Here we repo... Read More

Subtropical Clouds Key to Southern Ocean Teleconnections to the Tropical Pacific

Their findings have been published in the August 2022 issue of PNAS.

Subtropical Clouds Key to Southern Ocean Teleconnections to the Tropical Pacific

Abstract Excessive precipitation over the southeastern tropical Pacific is a major common bias that persists through generations of global climate models. While recent studies suggest an overly warm Southern Ocean as the cause, models disag... Read More

Demonstration of Feasible Waste Plastic Pyrolysis through Decentralized Biomass Heating Business Model

Their findings have been published in the August 2022 issue of Journal of Cleaner Production.

Demonstration of Feasible Waste Plastic Pyrolysis through Decentralized Biomass Heating Business Model

Abstract As the global recycling industry has collapsed since the China import ban of 2017, the amount of plastic waste has been rapidly increasing with little to no economic incentives for its utilization as a feedstock. For the first time... Read More

Accelerating Langevin Field-Theoretic Simulation of Polymers with Deep Learning

Their findings have been published in the August 2022 issue of Macromolecules.

Accelerating Langevin Field-Theoretic Simulation of Polymers with Deep Learning

Abstract Langevin field-theoretic simulation (L-FTS) is a promising tool in polymer field theory that can account for the compositional fluctuation effect, which is neglected in the self-consistent field theory (SCFT). However, L-FTS is a c... Read More
