Solar energy conversion
Uiterlijk 1 november in huis
A state-of-the art review on experimental and theoretical approaches to the study of interfacial electron and excitation transfer processes which are so crucial to solar energy conversion.
The importance of developing new, clean and renewable sources of energy will continue to grow in the foreseeable future and so will the need for the education of researchers in this field of science. The interest and challenges of the field continue to shift from simple homogeneous solutions to increasingly more complex heterogeneous systems and interfaces. Over the past decade there have been numerous theoretical and experimental breakthroughs many of which still can be found only in the primary literature. Solar Energy Conversion: Dynamics of Interfacial Electron and Excitation Transfer gathers together, in one volume, the description of modern, sometimes exploratory, experimental and theoretical techniques applied to the dynamics of interfacial electron and electronic excitation transfer processes studied in the context of solar energy conversion. The treatment is fundamental in nature and thus applicable to a broad range of hybrid photovoltaic and photocatalytic materials and interfaces. The book focuses on the dynamic aspects of the electron injection, exciton and carrier relaxation processes, as well as coherence effects in inhomogeneous systems, plasmon-assisted solar photochemistry and femtosecond microscopy, which continue to provide the impetus and the greatest challenge for the development of new methodologies. The goal of the editor and his international team of authors is to give the reader not only a sound reference, but also a starting point for the design of new challenging experiments and superior solar energy conversion materials.
