TU/e-DIFFER Energy Day: The Energy Transition from a different perspective

Workshop, to
DIFFER event
The recent report by the UN on Climate Change stresses again the urgency of radically changing our energy system within the next few decades. It puts even more pressure on the Dutch Government to propose more ambitious goals. The transition to a more sustainable energy system is, however, not only about reducing green house gasses.

Hierarchical Multiscale Catalytic Modelling: From the active site to the reactor

Seminar, to
DIFFER event
Rational design of catalytic materials can be achieved using advanced methods that model the multiscale catalyst behavior from the active site at the nanoscale to the reactor at the macroscale. Such methods are currently rather limited as they lack a proper description of the mesoscale.

Plasmon-enhanced single-molecule detection

Seminar, to
DIFFER event
Optical detection of single molecules is widely used in fields ranging from biology to materials science. The ability to detect single molecules has long relied on fluorescence approaches due to their high signal-to-background ratio. This limits the applicability of the approach to fluorescently labelled molecules with a high quantum yield.

Nanomaterials and halide perovskites - can they really be useful for solar cells?

Seminar, to
DIFFER event
Both nanomaterials and halide perovskites have generated a tremendous amount of hype in the solar cell research community. Some of this attention is very much deserved, but in both cases there are also serious challenges left to be addressed before commercialization can be considered.
